#atozchallenge U is for Uniquely, Unicorns, Ugly, Understanding, Unspeakable

#AtoZChallenge 2021 April Blogging from A to Z Challenge letter U


An alphabet of J's favorite blogs


U is for uniquely maladjusted but fun
I love THIS blog because:
  • the A to Z story this month is fun to read
  • Jamie is very passionate (and my cousin-in-law) 
  • I never know what the posts are going to be about next       



#atozchallenge Usborne books for Children


“Unicorns in Uniform” is part of a Phonics Readers series! These silly, animal-based stories incorporate phonics to teach sound-to-letter correspondence! They are great as a read-aloud for older toddlers and preschoolers, that progresses to independent readings. Children can even follow along with a recording using the QR code on the back cover! There are SO many in this series and even combination collections that will save you a few!

  2. I have been to the blog. No to the books, and I don't have a favorite continuous story. It's interesting now that we're to U, just how many blogs I've been to. They are already that purple text that lets me know I've been there! I have been to today's blog several times though.
    Ha! Thanks for the Uniform for today's scavenger hunt! I found one with a uniform pattern.

  4. “Unicorns in Uniform” sounds perfect for a phonics lesson presented as entertainment. I have visited Jamie's blogsite and agree, you never know what to expect next. Thanks for helping with my scavenger list.

  5. Honestly, I haven't read any of the continuous stories this month, prioritising folklore and myth blogs, even skipping visiting my usual A-Z haunts with the limited time I have for blogging right now.
