During outdoor time, divide the children into two teams and give each team a plastic bucket. Teams stand in two lines behind a line drawn on the pavement. About 15-20 feet away, draw another line and place several rubber bathtub letters on the ground behind the line. Play begins as the first team member races down, picks up a letter and runs back to his team. He/she names the letter, and places it in the bucket. The next team member runs to get the next letter. If the player names the letter incorrectly the teacher supports him/her in naming the letter. The team with the most letters wins.
