Using Magnetic letters on a cookie sheet is the PERFECT way
to store those letters and use for a variety of learning experiences. My top 5 favorite ways to use
magnetic letters with learners are:
1.
The Name
Game. Have students spell
names of family and friends. After
they make a name, mix up the letters and have them make it again several times!
2.
Alphabetical
Order. Use the upper and lower
case letters. Put them in
alphabetical order.
3.
Match
Your Favorite Book. Use favorite books to spell out the titles or favorite
page.
4.
Rhyming
Pairs. Build several words and
show your students how to change the first letter to make a new rhyming
word. Let them come up with their
own!
5.
High
Frequency Practice. Students
often, on their own, will spell out all the high frequency word wall words with
their magnetic letter cookie tray!
I encourage them to put them in rows of one letter words, two letter
words, three letter words, and so on.
