Letter S Craft for Preschool
This Letter S Craft for Preschool is chocked full of learning and fun! Print your activity onto cardstock paper. The background of the letter S template has sharks, skateboards, shirts, suns, and sunglasses. Take a moment to name each picture you see in the background before you begin the activity. Use markers and crayons to color in the images on page 2. Color in the strawberry, spider, snake, sheep, and stars!
Inside the letter S contains five shapes: big circle, small circle, square, triangle, and rectangle. Have your little ones cut out the shapes on page two and match each picture to its same shape. Using scissors is a great way to build fine motor skills. Matching shapes is a great way to learn shape names and shape recognition. What else do you see in the room that begins with the letter S?
S is for Shooting Star Craft!
Materials Needed: cardstock paper, streamers, markers/crayons, scissors, glue
First, print your free shooting star template. Talk about what is means to be a star! What does it mean to be strong, talented, artistic, and radiant? Use scissors to cut out the star, and use markers or crayons to decorate! I used a couple of stickers (which are great for building pincher strength) and some glitter!
Cut your streamers into strips and have your little ones paste each streamer to the back of the star. Be sure to hang your shooting star somewhere that needs a bit of colorful cheer! This craft is great for learning about the letter S and is also a great way to build social emotional learning into the lesson. How do you know when someone is strong? What talents do you have that make you happy?
Be sure to keep the Letter S Crafts going with a S is for Shark Craft and a S is for Sun Craft.
Letter S Activities for Preschool
Use a Dot Dot marker to dot the letter S. Engage with a touch of social emotional learning by talking about the word, “strong”. What does it feel like to be strong? How can you help other people with your strength? Another way to use this sheet is to have your little ones place one fruit loop onto each gray dot. Laminate your printable to keep it long lasting!
The Alphabet Handprint Book can be a great end of the year gift for your little ones and their parents. Take a look at “S is for Strawberry”. Use red paint for the handprints, a green marker for the leaves, and a black sharpie for the seeds. Be sure to use Washable Kwik Stix to add some colorful flourishes for fun.
Letter S Books for Preschool
Reading with your little ones is a great way to build a social connection, build vocabulary skills, and discover potential interests! Read “I’m Trying to Love Spiders”, “You Are (Not) Small”, and “How to Catch a Star”. I especially love “I’m Trying to Love Spiders”. The illustrations are so cute I am almost convinced that spiders aren’t too bad.
