Alphabet Images:  Each letter of the alphabet contains images similar in format to these 'A' pictures - colored clip art or photos. They are uniform in size so they can be cut and stacked easily.

Alphabet Sets: Here are two examples of the alphabet sets included. Again, these are full page size.

Color Alphabet - Original drawings. These contain only 4 cells per horizontal page, making them bigger for whole class learning as well as in literacy centers. They look compressed here on the sample page because they are being made to fit into this table.

Black and White Alphabet Drawings - Again, there are only 4 cells per horizontal page. These are perfect to use in preparing student materials, like alphabet books.

Ideas for Literacy Centers: Only 1 of 12 ideas.

1. Make the Alphabet:

• Have each alphabet printed and separated into small Baggies or wrapped with elastics. Children can take a package and put them into alphabetical order.

• Use a clothes line and children can hang the letters in order with clothespins.

• For a challenge have them try to make it backwards.

• To support earlier stages, have some letters in place and child can complete missing spaces.
