Alphabet Quilt: Idea #96

When your student is practicing letter sounds, an alphabet quilt could be a great way to get them motivated. Each time your student masters a letter sound, give them a quilt square to decorate for that sound. Once they have mastered all of the letter sounds, the quilt will be finished. 

Here is what you do:

1. Get 26 pieces of paper. Make sure they are all the exact same size.

2. Each time your student masters a letter sound, give them another square. You can either print fun things for each letter sound off the internet or have them draw something.

I got my printed pictures from: www.TwistyNoodle.com

3. Once they  have mastered all 26 letter sounds, tape the squares together in alphabetical order. This is the back view.

4. Your quilt is complete! Place it in a somewhere your student can see frequently. My quilt is very simple, but you can decorate it and be as crafty as you wish with the completed product.

You can also make your alphabet quilt using photos, as shown on this blog: http://www.homestoriesatoz.com/decorating/paper-alphabet-quilt.html.

You can make an actual quilt (not made out of paper) for your student if you're super ambitious. Here is an idea: http://www.arbeedesigns.com/abc-baby-quilt/

Your student will love making this alphabet quilt! Have fun!
