Lesson plans are included for some letters, but teachers are also encouraged to develop activities for the remaining letters. This kit allows for student-directed learning, as teachers could also let students choose research topics related to a specific letter. Lesson plans are included for six letters: M is for Map; O is for Otter; R is for Rainbow Trout; T is for Tugboat; W is for Waves; and Z is for Zebra Mussel. Also included is an extensive list of resources, organized alphabetically by topic or subject area, which can be useful for both students and teachers.
