Materials Required: list of words that correspond to alphabet, paper, markers or watercolors
Activity Time: 3 class periods of at least 45 minutes
Concepts Taught: Sound/Symbol relationship of Spanish alphabet

Introduce the Spanish alphabet. After introducing the alphabet, point out the letters that don't exist in our English alphabet. A list of words that correspond to each letter of the Spanish alphabet will be passed out. Choose words that children would like to draw - preferably objects that they are fond of. They need to pick one word to represent each letter. In my case, they are working on the books now in their art class. They really seem to be enjoying this project. Let me know how it works out if you try this lesson..
