Alphabet Book

Below are the instructions for creating an Alphabet Book. This is a great tool for young students that are just learning they letters.

First, Take a sheet of construction paper and fold it in half, hot dog style. (Long ways, hamburger style is )


Next, you fold the corners in, like a paper airplane.


Then, fold the nose of the airplane over so that the tip touches the edge of the opposite side of the paper.


Now, fold in half down the center on the airplane nose. As you can see, each side has a pocket.


Next, hole punch the page on the unfolded side of the paper.


Finally, glue or write your letter on the pocket. You now have one complete page of your alphabet book.



Once all of your pages are complete use yarn or string to tie them together. Don't forget to make a cover.

Now the pockets are ready to be filled with pictures of items that start with the corresponding letter. A great way to do this is, each day work with your child on a certain letter. Find pictures to fill the pocket, then quiz them on the times and letter.
