Preschool Pickins - Letter F

This week we are working mostly on letter Ff.  We have also reviewed Ee a little from last week.  Here is some of what we did this week.  Mommy has spent hours upon hours downloading, printing, laminating, cutting and organizing.  It's so much fun!

We use this laminator and laminating sheets:





We use hanging file folders to organize our preschool printables:



We use a file folder box to store our printables:

Although some of our schoolwork comes from Mommy's own head or things she had from previous years, you can find a lot of what we use here for free:

  2. Thanks! We had saved those books from when our older children were little ones and I rediscovered the book set in the attic a couple of months ago. They are great! :)
