Z-man has become very interested in letters, especially Z's. He always wants me to draw "Big One Z's!" When he asked me to draw one at the beach, I jumped on the teaching moment. I drew a big Z with a shovel and then continued with the rest of his name. He traced over my letters with his shovel (blue of course). We walked along the letters, making footprints on top of the tracings. Then, I yelled out "Go to the Z!" and we ran and jumped on the Z. We did this for all his letters. Much to my surprise, he got the letters right more than half the time! Yea for teachable moments!
