This is a full week built around a single letter. Each day feels different even though they are reinforcing the same letter all week. That repetition is what builds real mastery.

The Weekly Structure

Monday: Practice writing the letter, both uppercase and lowercase. Fill half a page.

Tuesday: Draw three things that start with that letter. Be creative. For "B" they might draw a bear, a banana, and a bus.

Wednesday: Write the words for those three things. Sound them out together. Spelling does not need to be perfect.

Thursday: Write a sentence using one of those words. "I like bears." or "The bus is big."

Friday: Free draw and write page. They can do anything related to the letter, or something completely different. This is their reward day.

Why This Works

Repetition without boredom. Monday through Thursday build on each other naturally, and Friday gives them freedom. By the end of the week, that letter is locked in, not because they drilled it 100 times on a worksheet, but because they used it in meaningful ways.

Pro Tips

• Use a dedicated composition notebook just for this. Kids love having "their journal."
• Skip letters they already know well. If your kid can write and recognize "S" perfectly, spend that week on a harder letter.
• Take photos of their best pages. You will want them later.
• This pairs beautifully with whatever phonics program you are using.
