Mystery Letter

Mystery Letter

Learning Goals: Letter Knowledge, Letter Formation, Phonological Awareness

    • Choose a "mystery letter" for the day.
    • Create a morning message where the mystery letter is missing and leave a space with a line where the letter should be.
    • As a class, figure out what letter is missing and have a student come and form the letter on the line.
    • Lead the class in making the letter sound and model sounding out the word.
    • Continue reading the rest of the morning message and filling in the mystery letter wherever it shows up.
