I would like for my students to recognize the relationship between letters and words.
Y-Provide a variety of card or folder games for the students to match letters with pictures to make words. Have students sound new words.
Y-Provide a display of books for the children to read and look at.
Y-Let students on the computer to make words using the keyboard.

I think that these are activities that can be done in the library setting also. These activities could be cooridinated with the library media specialist.
You could also use the activity at circle time first thing in the morning. I had students tell me something they did over the weekend and wrote one sentence repeating what they said. I would then use their sentences throughout the day for activities, such as recognizing letters and words. I would have them circle certain sounds or words that we would search for in our activities. You could use this with any age group of non to poor readers.
I have found a great activity called "reading rods". In this activity you start with just identifing to letters, then move on to learning the sounds of the letters. There are pictures that you match with the letters for beginning sounds, ending sounds, middle sounds, rhyming words, etc. This is a great hands on activity, and the students love putting the rods together.
We in the library like to have a list of the letters and sounds the teachers are using so we can collaborate with them to reinforce the learning process.
