//Preparing your child to read and spell.//
You and your pre-school staff will have spent some time learning the alphabet with your child.

If possible try to spend time with your child allowing them to identify the name of each letter and the sound it makes.


 * A really exciting activity is to create an Alphabet Book with the letters written in capitals and lower case side by side, eg: Aa.


 * Next using magazines, scissors and glue find pictures of words which start with each letter.


 * Write the name of the object below each picture in lower case writing.

Also get your child to practise writing both their first and last names and identify the letters in their name.
