****Guess what?!  Letter of the Week lesson plans are getting an overhaul!  I’m going through and updating all plans, adding new free worksheets and making sure all links are up to date!  I’ve created a bunch of templates too for some of the crafts that’ll make your life a lot easier!  Hang tight!  It may take some time to get through all the letters, but it’s coming soon!!  If you’re seeing this message, this post has already been updated!*** 6/8/23

Y’all…when I start these letter of the week posts, the cheesiest stuff ever floods my mind.

Like  the letter V.  Immediately that stinking” V for victory” cheer gets stuck in my head.  I wasn’t even a cheerleader but some of my best friends were.  That stupid cheer is still so clear, but I can’t remember where I put the spare car key.  Go figure.

Anyways…I guess the price you pay for admission to these  blog posts is my cheesy intros at the beginning, right?   Maybe that little “V for Victory” ditty is stuck in your head now too.

Sorry.  Not sorry.  You get this week’s super cute letter V lesson plan in exchange!

ABC Flashcards

Flashcards are important…blah, blah, blah.  You’ve heard it a thousand times now.  But just in case you haven’t, here’s my spiel on why the are essential to these weekly plans.

This week’s letter should be practiced, “v-vase-/v/.”  Don’t forget, you can grab my flashcards by signing up for my newsletter!  There are free review activities ideas included as well!

Letter V Books

This week’s books contain one of my school teacher favorites.  I love using it at the beginning of the year to teach procedure.  It’s called, “My Mouth is a Volcano,” and it’s about interrupting and a great way to start a good conversation about polite conversation. We have a copy here at the house and my daughter loves it!

Remember – if your local library doesn’t have these books you can usually score them on Amazon used, dirt cheap.
