Alphabet Lap books - A

This will of course be a series of 26! After all there are 26 letters in the alphabet.

I am hoping to every week design a week around one letter of the alphabet.

I will hopefully have games to play, poems to read, scripture to memorize and so forth.

I'll be using a variety of sources.

These three to start with:
http://www.homeschoolshare.com/alphabet_notebook.php
http://www.dltk-teach.com/minibooks/index.htm
http://www.homeschoolshare.com/level_1_lapbooks.php

But I won't of course use everything on the different sites. I'll be pulling off what I think I"ll use and all that. :)

Here's what I have to start
an alligator poem and an apple shaped letter book and a letter size sorting game.

I want to make a stencil of the letter A and put it up on the fridge with "a" pictures we find or can draw so that we remember what letter we're working on for the week. :)

I'm not sure about doing this one from DLTK's, book is cute, but seems Like you need LOTS of paper to do it. So just thinking on it yet.

I used this Letter A reproducible from Innovative Classroom.

Here's a neat site! Teacher Planet. Got a craft idea which I'm revamping to make a construction paper apple.

and then I got this idea, since Justin likes cats, to find pictures of cats that begin with the "letter a", so then I went here which got me cat names, and then all I had to do is find pictures. :) Here is an Abyssinian. American Bobtail. American Shorthair.
