Collect old cereal box covers. Set aside. Then, using a die-cut machine, cut out all of the letters of the alphabet several times. Laminate for durability. Instruct students to find the matching letters that correspond to the name of the cereal and put in the correct order on the desk in front of them. By using names of familiar cereal in this activity, students will recognize that letters are put together to form words…even the words they see every day!
