Learning Games Reading Spelling writing

Foam Letter Word Search

Have you seen those Foam Letter Stickers?  They have them at the dollar store here.  We love using them for all kinds of projects.  This week I made the kids a little word search with them.  I put in a few smaller, easier words that they know and filled it in with other letters.

The foam letter word search can be sued for a few different learning concepts.  They circled the words they found.  Then I made it even more educational and had them write the words they found, too. They didn’t notice that they were practicing reading, writing and spelling all at once, because it was fun!  It could also be used just for teaching the alphabet.

I loved the way my son added in a letter to make one of his favorite words.

    Brilliant way to get rid of all the extra letters that are left at the end of a pack, once the A’s and E’s are gone. 🙂
