Spelling...We worked on spelling PIG this week. I wrote the word and drew a picture on our dry erase board. Each day I had Little Bit spell and sound out the word.
...tray with magnetic letters and cards with words {PIG, PAT, PEN}. Little Bit placed the corresponding letters over the letters on the cards...while sounding out each letter.

Pigs...dot to dot pig. This is a great exercise for getting letters in the correct order and drawing lines!
...button pig. We used pink buttons and glued them on a card to look like a pig. Then I drew in ears and a curly tail.
