All you need is a sheet with the letters of the alphabet written in upper case and matching letters tiles. (upper and/or lowercase) For this activity I used commercially produced letter tiles and an alphabet mat that I created myself. If you don't have these items in your classroom you can easily make your own set.
Those children who are working on letter recognition can match upper case to upper case. Those who already know their upper case letters could match them with the lower case letters.
For an extra challenge you could use more complicated fonts. Or, you could give the child a blank table and have him/her put the letters on is ABC order.
Skills
- reading and naming letters
- matching upper and or lower case letters
- sorting letters
- visual discrimination (making sure the letters are up the right way, differing b from d etc)
