Literacy in The World Around Us
A fun activity to encourage young children to find, learn and recognize the letters in the world around them. Children will love being letter detectives and not even realize they are learning. This activity encourages early literacy skills, teamwork, writing and communication skills.
Enhance the activity:
Give the children magnifying glasses and have them search the school grounds and classroom. You may even want them to record it by giving them paper and a pencil to write the letters they found (depending on skill level). Split the children into groups and give each one a camera to take pictures of the letters they find. This activity has so many branches that it fits many age groups. I saw this activity at a workshop and decided to do it with my Kindergarten classroom. They had a blast being letter detectives.
