<\/p>\nWe have been so busy this month with our alphabet study!\u00a0 This month we have been working on the letters M, N, and O.\u00a0 In addition to letter recognition, we are working very hard on learning letter formation and the sound the letter makes.<\/p>\n
We practice building letters using various materials like M&Ms.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
We use our bodies and large motor skills to trace the letters with our feet!<\/p>\n

We also do some activities with beginning sounds like this one where we stamped the pictures that started with M using our dot markers.<\/p>\n
