These fun alphabet crafts are perfect for all your young children that are learning the letter R!
From rockets, rainbows, raccoons, and so much more… your preschoolers and lower elementary students will have such a great time learning about the letter R!
Teaching the Letter R
Letter crafts are a great way to teach early learners the different letters of the alphabet! Instead of teaching all 26 letters of the alphabet at once, focus on one letter at a time. Going letter by letter makes it far less overwhelming to your children and they will have much more success in retaining the information.
In this article we have gathered activities that focus on one particular letter… which of course is the letter R! Being hands-on in their lesson will not only keep them focused but also make it fun and exciting to learn this new letter.
We hope these crafts help your little ones learn letter recognition while also allowing for some time for bonding and spending time together. Make it a family affair and get your older kids involved in the alphabet lesson as well!
And, if you’re really into learning more about the letter r, be sure to include these reptile facts for kids in your study!
