How to Use the Alphabet Exercise Cards

You can use the cards any way you see fit. Here are some ideas.

Put them in a jar. When your student gets the wiggles, let her choose one and act out the card together.
Hide the cards around the house. When your student needs a break from schoolwork, go on a hunt for a card. Find one (or two or three!) and act out the exercises together.
Line them up in alphabetical order. See how many you can work through before you are exhausted.
Hint: If your student needs help lining them up, just sing the alphabet song together.
Line them up in alphabetical order. Call out a letter. Let your student find it, grab it, and complete the exercise.
