    My kids loved these! I also loved them as a teacher who doesn’t have great drawing skills. I followed the steps for the drawings to make some pretty awesome letter anchor charts.

    Students love using the picture prompts to create their pictures. We label the pictures and then write about it. I like how these can also be used to review and practice writing the letters of the alphabet.
