All About the Letter A - Letter of the Week SMARTBoard Activities!

This is my first Letter of the Week SMARTNotebook file made for Teachers Pay Teachers. Your feedback is much appreciated to improve later activities. I have used a variety of the activities in both whole and small group instruction. The students like dragging objects on the SMARTBoard so much that I usually have it as an independent center for them to continue to practice their letter skills.
