DIY Alphabet Kits

 You can make your own Alphabet Kits to use in the classroom or at home for cheap!  

I love the letters found at this site: www.alphabetletter.com
You can order them with magnets or not.  You also can get the vowels in different colors.  You can get an alphabet set for as low at $1.15!! Love them.
I think there is a minimum order requirement.  So.... have a group of your friends go in on one order!

I made two different kinds of sets:

TYPE 1:
I just bought a tackle box from Wal-Mart to keep my letters in.  This is my kit that I would use in Reading groups or just use with my three year old at home.

TYPE 2:
I just bought some pencil boxes when they were cheap right before back to school.  You can find these small mirrors at Dollar Tree.  I put an alphabet set in the box with a mirror.  Preschoolers and Kinder age kiddos have fun looking at themselves in the mirror as they make their letter sounds.  The kids think this is hilarious!

Pin It!
