Have him use his marker to mark each one.

You can find all of the little f’s first, or all of the big F’s first or just mark them as you find them.

Remind him what the letter F looks like.

Use your alphabet flip book for preschoolers to remind them. (There is a link at the end of this post that shows you how to make your own flip book. Super easy!)

Trace over the big F and little f with their finger.

Ask them to think of all the things that start with the letter Ff. We thought of frog, fox, feather, fan. family, fog and more!

Now you can let your preschooler color the frog.

Preschool Letter Worksheets: Do a Dot Printable (E is for Eagle)

By Crystal VanTassel-Lopez 3 Comments

Do you homeschool or do some supplemental learning at home with your preschooler?

As you know we homeschool and our little Matthew, who is four, is learning his alphabet. We use these preschool letter worksheets with do a dot markers to practice identifying our letter of the week. We have a lot of fun doing it.

Let me show you how we found all of the E’s for eagle and how we use this printable in our homeschool learning.

YOU WILL NEED:

letter Ee printable <<—— click to print
do a dot art markers
homemade alphabet flipbook (optional)
crayons for coloring the eagle (optional)

Print out the E is for Eagle printable by clicking on the link above.

Gather your supplies.

I am really digging these learning trays too. They work really well for keeping all of the supplies together in one place while Matthew is working.

I write a big E and a little e on our dry erase board. This gives Matthew a clear understanding of what the letter looks like.

We do all of our homeschool work in the dining room where a large board is hanging to make instruction easier.

I bring out our homemade alphabet flipbook.

We find the letter Ee.

We go over what sound the letter makes and trace with our finger how to draw the letter.

We name the things that start with that letter like egg, eagle and elephant.

This time I let Matthew decide if he wanted to color the eagle first on the printable or find all of the big E’s and little e’s.

He wanted to color first.

The he was ready to use his do a dot marker to find all of the Ee’s.

He worked hard to mark them all.

When he was done he wanted to count them.

We also took the time to talk about the color of the do a dot marker he had chosen as well as the colors he used to color his eagle.

The possibilities for learning are endless with these and he always has so much fun!

What letter of the week are you working on now?

Do a Dot Christmas Printables: T is for (Christmas) Tree

By Crystal VanTassel-Lopez 5 Comments

If you loved our packet of Do a Dot Christmas Printables, I think you will enjoy this as well.

Matthew always loves when I give him any opportunity to play with the do a dot markers. He loves those things.

This past week Matthew (4) and our friend Skylar (my friend Kim’s 9 year old daughter) had fun with this Christmas printable. For Skylar I think it was a fun teaser, she seemed to enjoy it even though she is older. I can see this being a fun warmup activity for an older child.

For Matthew, he got to work on the letter Tt. Let me show you what we did.

You Will Need:

T is for Tree printable <<—– click to print
do a dot art markers
alphabet flip book (I have a tutorial teaching you how to make one.)

Grab your alphabet flip book and talk about the letter Tt.

Notice the difference in the big T and the little t.

Talk about the sound the letter T makes.

Talk about things that start with a T, like T is for tiger. T is for tree.

Next, Matthew pointed out all of the big T’s and little t’s on his printable.

Then he used one of the do a dot markers to dab all of the big and little T’s.

And there is sweet Ms. Skylar doing her T is for Tree printable too! She loves to encourage Matthew to do his school work.

We had lots of fun and Matthew learned something.

Preschool Letter Worksheets: D is for Dog

By Crystal VanTassel-Lopez 3 Comments

Our preschool letter worksheets are perfect for Matthew (4) as I teach him his alphabet. They allow us the opportunity to tackle a new letter each week.

These free printables go well with our letter of the week preschool crafts.

Let me show you how we use these in our homeschool day with Matthew.

You Will Need:

letter Dd printable <<—— click to print
do a dot art markers
crayons for coloring the dog (optional)

We get our do a dot marker (I let him pick which color he wants to use) and the printable.

We identify what a big D and a little d look like on the worksheet.

I use my alphabet flip book to find our letter as well. (I have a super easy and affordable tutorial for making your own flip book.)

We find the Dd card.

We say the letter, make the sound and same the name of the picture on the card.(Pretend that is the Dd card. I totally forgot to take a picture.)

Matthew starts use the do a dot marker to find the big D’s and little d’s.

This printable has a a lot of letters that look like D and d. There are P and p, B and b, Q and q.

He really confused the little d’s with the other lowercase letters. I reminded him that a little d has a circle then a line. That really helped him. We could go one by one and check them so he was sure not to confuse them.

Once he was done marking all of the D’s and d’s, he wanted to count them.

Then, he always likes to color the picture on the worksheet.

This time he not only colored the picture but pretended the letters like it was a word find like he has seen his bigger brothers do.

I just let him lead.

Preschool Letter Worksheets: Do a Dot Printable (Letter C)

By Crystal VanTassel-Lopez 4 Comments

Are you and your preschooler going over the alphabet together? Are you taking it one letter at a time?

This is what I am doing with my little Matthew (4) as he learns his ABC’s. We are calling it the letter of the week .

Right now we are learning the letter Cc. Each week I am sharing with you new preschool letter worksheets that go over the letter we are learning. These printables go perfectlywith our letter of the week crafts, best children’s books listings and snack ideas.

Have you ever seen do-a-dot markers? Oh man, your little kids will love them! They resemble “bingo dobbers” and they work perfectly for these find a letter printables.

C is for car. Let’s find all of the big C’s and little c’s!

Preschool Letter Worksheets Tutorial

You Will Need:

letter Cc printable <<—— click to print
do a dot art markers
crayons for coloring the car (optional)

Print out your free letter Cc printable.

I like to write the letter Cc on my dry erase board. This board is mounted on the wall in our dining room right next to our kitchen table. This is where the majority of our homeschool day takes place.

I get out our alphabet flip book and we find this week’s letter. I made this flip book on the cheap and you can make one too! A link to the simple tutorial is at the end of this post.

We say the letter, we say the picture and we say the sound the letter makes.

Matthew was so proud of himself for doing this. When I first made this book a few months back, he had no interest in learning or saying the sounds each letter makes.

He went through and quickly identified all of the C’s.

He used his do-a-dot marker to mark each one.

By this time 0ur dog had hopped up next to Matthew.

Matthew counted how many C’s he had marked. The dog listened.

Right now Matthew is learning how to write his name. I am on the hunt for name practice for preschoolers. I took this opportunity to utilize the free space on this printable for Matthew to work on tracing his name.

Another fun thing you can do is give your preschooler crayons and let them color the car as you talk more about the letter Cc.

How fun was that?

Preschool Letter Worksheets: Do a Dot Printable (Letter B)

By Crystal VanTassel-Lopez 1 Comment

Do you love teaching your preschooler at home? Are you doing letter of the week crafts as your little one learns their ABC’s?

Last week I started sharing preschool letter worksheets with you guys that you can print for free. Each worksheet focuses on a new letter of the alphabet and ties in perfectly with our letter of the week crafts.

Your preschooler uses do a dot markers to identify the letter of the week that you are working on.

This week our worksheet focuses on the letter Bb. What better way to do this than to tie this printable in with our B is for Butterfly preschool craft and B is for Butterfly snack idea?!

Preschool Letter Worksheets Tutorial

You Will Need:

letter Bb printable <<—— click to print
do a dot art markers
crayons for coloring the butterfly (optional)

Print out your free letter Bb printable.

Discuss the letter Bb and the sound it makes.

Show them how to write the big B and little b on a dry erase board, chalk board or piece of paper.

Grab your ABC flip book. (A link to the tutorial which shows you how to make your own is at the end of this post.)

Practice tracing the letter.

Say the sound it makes.

Let your preschooler use the do a dot markers to find the big B’s and little b’s on the printable.

Matthew (4) was able to identify big A’s and little a’s from last week on this printable.

Matthew did mark some of the wrong letters today- like p, q and d. But that is ok. Talk about the mistakes and how they look different from Bb.

Break out the crayons and/or markers.

Let them color the butterfly.

(Notice Matthew colored his arms with a red marker. That was supposed to wash off easily. Not so much.)

Instead of coloring the butterfly, Matthew wanted to trace around the letters like it was a maze. Have at it. Let them be creative.

For a preschooler who has more developed scissor skills, you could certainly let them cut the butterfly out after they color it.

There is also space, if you choose not to cut the butterfly, for your child to practice writing their name above or below the butterfly.

Matthew wanted to use the back of his paper to draw a robot.

I loved watching him be creative.

Really, it is about having fun while learning and making memories together.

My older kids like to give their input on Matthew’s work as well and they like to coach him along. I love that it can be a family effort.

We have a dry erase board in our dining area on the wall next to our dinner table. This is where we do all of our school work.

I wrote Aa on the board to reinforce it for Matthew (who is 4).

We said the letter out loud together.

I grabbed our alphabet flip book that we made a few weeks back. (Check out the link at the end of this post to be directed to the tutorial for making your own flip book on the cheap.)

Matthew pointed at the letter Aa in the flip book. We said the letter out loud, we said the name of the picture (apple) and we made the Aa sound together.

Now that he knows what the letter looks like, he started marking with the do a dot art markers all of the big A’s and little a’s on the sheet.

He was so thorough and wanted to learn.

He marked every one of the A’s and a’s.

Then, he wanted to color the alligator.

He took his crayons and markers and did just that.

And we were all done. He was so proud of his work and wanted to show his brothers.

The next day we pulled the worksheet back out and he instantly remember the name of the letter and the sound it makes.

I am so proud of him!
