(From The Mailbox)
Secretly place in a paper lunch bag several small, like items whose names begin with a chosen letter. Draw the letter block-style very lightly on a sheet of tagboard.
To begin, hold the tagboard so the letter will be facing students when it is cut out, but avoid letting them see the drawing. Cut out the letter, pausing periodically for students to guess what it is. After it is cut out, tell students that the bag holds items whose names begin with the letter. Shake the bag to give them a clue. Once students correctly guess what is in the bag, have them glue the contents to the letter. Then post the letter on the wall. Repeat the activity over a few weeks to create a unique display from A to Z!
