All About the Letter T

October 5, 2015 by Mary Amoson 4 Comments

All About the Letter Tt
Working on learning all about the Letter Tt soon? Get ready! Let’s make learning all about the letter Tt activities the best!
One of my favorite subjects to teach in K is phonics. I LOVE teaching students the sounds letters make and how to put those sounds together to make words. {I can’t lie… I love every subject in K. But I really REALLY love phonics too!}
My school began teaching the Saxon letter order years ago.
That means I would teach letters in this order…
L O G H T P A N M I S F… you get the idea.
Then a few years back we were directed to change to the
Recipe for Reading letter order.
This order is C O A D… and so on.
Now, we are BACK to Saxon and onto the letter T.
I don’t think the letter order makes or breaks much in the work of K,
but it does dictate all our reading curriculum since
building words using sounds to read in the foundation of phonics.
Like always, I start the week with the Alphatales book “When Tilly Turtle Came to Tea.”
I read my copy and I make the printable versions for my students.

On Monday we use sensory phonics,
then we move onto these phonics activity for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

On Friday, we do a whole class chart using this sheet and cards.
We make a class chart of words that begin with Tt like Turtle.
Tt Chart and sound cards
Since some students are better than others,
I make sure I have picture cards on hand to support learning
 until student can come up with words on their own.

In daily 5, we use these handwriting printables…

and this letter finding activity.

One of our math stations is this treasure chest activity.
All About the Letter T: Treasure themed JEWEL number sense game
We have these treasure chests and we add the ten frame “jewel numbers”
 to each chest to make the number.
Since we complete this in centers, I give each student a different color set of jewels.

This way I can make sure each child has mastered this center before they leave.
Some of my students are working on making single digit numbers
but some are ready for double digits.
How do we do that?
We MAKE the number with tens and ones!

Next, we can follow up with this printable.

We also are working HARD on making words.
I love these CVC card mats.

Can you see the colored boxes?

The colored boxes MATCH with the jewels they need to create words.

Moreso, level this activity like so. Here is an easier way to play this game is to cut the words out while still connected like this.
All About the Letter T: Meet all your students needs with THIS TIP
or you can mix it up and cut the words apart.
You can be like me and do one set of words together for those that need the help
and leave the rest apart for most of your students.

and match the word to the picture.

    I use the AlphaTales Alphabet books too — but do you use your book to make the books for each child? I am curious or if there is a book that has the blackline masters for copying the books?

    It has a book with blacklines! I made a class set of each 10 years ago! I still have them.
