Art Across the Alphabet contains art-centered activities for children ages three to six to reinforce letter recognition, build phonemic awareness and pre-reading skills, and associate reading with fun! The book links art and literacy seamlessly, explores the magic of language and offers unique opportunities to create readers while creating art -- from Airplane wings to Zany Zoo Animals! Children explore each letter creatively through a Letter of the Week focus that lets each letter take center stage, an Alphabet Gallery Activity that helps children discover each letter of the alphabet with a group activity, which is then displayed in an Alphabet Gallery around the room, Fun Letter Activities for every letter of the alphabet, which can be incorporated throughout your pre-reading curriculum, and¨The Bridge Home, which are letters that contain ideas to send to parents so they can be involved in the learning process and reinforce the lessons at home.
