Each week I write our letter of the week {upper and lower case} large on a piece of construction paper and the kids cover the letter with an object that begins with our letter of the week.  They have to cover the letter as if they are writing the letter to stress letter formation. 

Here are some ideas for each letter. If anyone has more ideas please add them in the comments!
