My students have been loving this resource so far! I love the simple step by step directions on how to draw the animals without hearing “I can’t do it!”

Perfect for adding some phonics to my art

I love to do directed drawing, and this is a cool way for me to do so, while incorporating letter recognition and phonemic awareness!

We will try and use for each letter of the week. Can be hard for some initially because they are so young and have varying fine motor
Wendy N. –
Super cute resource that my students look forward to doing! Easy to prep and worth the money!
Taylor Seidel –
This is the perfect early-finisher activity for my kindergarteners after they have finished the required lesson/activity when learning letters and sounds!
Amy S. –
The first few weeks of Kindergarten is always reviewing the letters and practicing handwriting strokes. These pages combine both activities and reach all abilities at the same time. It is easy enough for the students that are just learning the letters and can be more involved for the students that already are familiar with the letters. Thank you for the step by step instructions for the pictures.
Gabrielle G. –
This is such a fun way to introduce letters to your class. It ties in a fun art piece too which the kids LOVE
