Give each child in your class a book of 26 pages. As you finish a letter brainstorm a list of 5 words that begin with that letter.Draw the suggestions on the chalkboard. The children will then draw and write the words in their own books. You can come up with a great cover to make this a memory book and add the class names to each page.I only started last year and it was a great success. You may wish to make specific books such as an animal pictionary, things we see, etc.
