Letter of the Week: Preschool Reading Curriculum

Letter of the Week is a preschool reading curriculum designed for children ages 2-5 that I used with our little one. The curriculum hasn’t changed much in the past several years, but it is still just as valuable as it ever was. This 38-week program focuses on teaching preschoolers the alphabet and its sounds through a variety of engaging activities.

Each letter of the alphabet has its own set of resources, including poems, math suggestions, and even field trip ideas—all related to that particular letter. For example, when you select “A,” you’ll find a wealth of activities centered around that letter, from art projects to literature suggestions.
