  1. Hi Jenny!

    I absolutely adore these lesson plans. It is such a creative idea and I think it is such a great way for students to not only see the letter but match it to words they probably already know! Not only would this be great for beginning readers but I can imagine using these to help out English Language Learners!

    Thank you for sharing!

    1. I agree with Marissa’s assessment. Perfect for ELL!

      A very clever approach to using images to teach sounds. And effective use of WP image compare block that inspires many other uses.

  2. This is my favorite use of the image slider that I have seen yet! Super refreshing to see cool and unique ways to teach young ones their letters and their respective sounds. (:
