Journey through learning the letters of the alphabet while also discovering Bible characters, verses, stories and more! These mini books are perfect for little hands and the message is perfect for their little hearts!

Here is what is included in this resource. Make sure to check out the preview!

My Mini Bible Letter Books

One for each letter of the alphabet! Each mini book is 7 mini pages on two full sheet of paper. They are easy to print, cut down the middle and staple together.

Each Book Includes

• Page 1: A Bible verse that begins with the letter. This can be used for memorization too!

  • Ex) All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Rom.3:23

• Page 2: Letter with Bible Word, Picture & short lesson

  • •Ex) A is for Adam
  • •Adam was the first man God created.

• •Page 3:Another Letter with Bible Word, Picture & short lesson

  • •Ex) a is for angel
  • •An angel told Mary she was going to have Baby Jesus.

• Page 4: Uppercase Learn & Practice: you can use these pages to teach what the letter looks like and how to write it, you could also introduce the sound.

  • Say & trace it- The letter is shown with numbered traceable lines inside it for the student to follow. Could use a highlighter
  • Color it: The letter is shown in a sort of bubble font so the student can color inside it.
  • Write it : The letter is shown dotted on lines for the student to trace then write on their own.

• Page 5: Lowercase Learn & Practice: you can use these pages to teach what the letter looks like and how to write it, you could also introduce the sound.

  • Say & trace it- The letter is shown with numbered traceable lines inside it for the student to follow. Could use a highlighter
  • Color it: The letter is shown in a sort of bubble font so the student can color inside it.
  • Write it : The letter is shown dotted on lines for the student to trace then write on their own.

  • •Ex) on the A page, the student should cut an anchor, acorn, angel and ax.

Letter Sounds Pictures ( Pg. 58-65)

•Organized three letters at a time, these are pictures of things that begin with each letter of the alphabet. These are small enough to cut out and paste onto the last page of the mini book. Very little ones – You could let them find the right pictures then you may want to cut them out for them. I would suggest printing them on cardstock. I used a color cardstock.

Alphabet Posters Sample ( 67-70)

•I created full sized posters to be used to decorate your classroom, use as visuals, stick to your fridge or dry erase board to remember the letter of the week. I provided three free samples for you in this resource. Post on cardstock or laminate.

What's great about these mini books is they include almost all of the resources that are in other kinds of letter of the week curriculums but i_nstead of wasting tons of paper, you are are only printing two pages a week_ !

These were created with Preschoolers in mind, but they could be used with Kindergarten as review, as remediation or for sped.
