Alphabet City
Learning letters has never been more fun! This cross-curricular project blends ELA, math and engineering design in a hands-on activity your students will LOVE!
In the Book...
Albert builds the alphabet using tools and scraps. A playground and path are then lined with the letters.
The Challenge
Build a letter of the alphabet out of cardboard — and make sure it will stand by itself.
Decorate It!
Decorate your letter with colorful designs and pictures of things that start with that letter.
