This year at Coop, I'm teaching a Preschool Messy Class! Yes, a messy class!
Our first week, we created I Spy Alphabet Bottles.

Mac had the best time helping me prepare the rice!
First, we read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!
I took in our sand table from home. After the book, I dumped out all the rice in the sand table. I had numerous scoops/spoons/cups for each child to fill their empty juice bottle. Unfortunately, the first week was a little chaotic; therefore, I wasn't able to snap any "action" shots! I had 12 little 3/4 year olds...that's 24 hands dumping rice everywhere!
After they filled their bottle, we carefully added alphabet beads, then hot-glued the lid on.

In addition, I created this simple Alphabet Handout (laminated) for each child to take home along with the I Spy Alphabet Bottle.

Shake, find and identify a letter, then cover letter on handout.

Super fun way to learn and recognize the letters of the alphabet!
What a darling activity! I love how you connected it to CCBB and how the students can cover up the found letters! Thanks for sharing!
