Sometimes all it takes to turn a worksheet from “Blah” to “Bliss” is just a creative twist. I designed the Free Printable Letter M Worksheets: Tracing, Letter Recognition, Alphabet Sounds to be easy-to-implement letter activities that hit a lot of learning objectives without monotony. Your job is to add that bit of sparkle to keep your students actively engaged while practicing Letter M from a variety of perspectives.

ALPHABET WORKSHEETS TO TEACH LETTERS AND SOUNDS
HELPING KIDS LEARN THE ALPHABET TAKES TIME, REPETITION, AND VARIETY. YOUNG LEARNERS NEED PLENTY OF HANDS-ON OPPORTUNITIES TO EXPLORE EACH LETTER.
Learning the alphabet means more than just identifying letters. It means discerning between uppercase and lowercase letters, learning correct letter formation, learning individual letter names, and learning individual letter sounds.
These letter M worksheets for preschool and kindergarten provide your students with practice on any and all of the skills mentioned above!
Use the packet as an end-of-the-year review, or as a way to introduce/practice any specific skills your students need to work on.
These printable activities are meant to be mixed and matched! Use the find and color pages when really hammering letter names. Or, break out the tracing worksheets when teacher letter formation for the letter of the week.
It’s up to you! Here’s what I included in the preschool letter worksheet set:
- Letter Tracing: THREE different versions, depending on abilities/motor skill development
- Cut and Sort: Uppercase vs. Lowercase and First Sound Pictures
- Read and Color: Sight Words/First Sound/CVC and CVCC Words
- Find the Letter Worksheets: I Spy and Grid formats
- Roll and Write: A fun dice game to practice writing Letter M
- Rainbow Writing: A colorful way to complete a tracing letter worksheet
- First Sound: Pictures and words to help children hear the /m/ sound at the beginning of words
- Do-a-dot Marker: Large letter shapes to help young learners explore Letter M
What Can Preschoolers Learn From Letter Recognition Worksheets?
LEARNING THE ALPHABET WITH YOUNG STUDENTS
LEARNING THE ALPHABET IS ULTIMATELY THE KEY TOWARDS FUTURE READING SUCCESS. AS KIDS GAIN CONFIDENCE AND STAMINA WITH LETTER NAMES AND SOUNDS, THEY BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WILL BE ABLE TO BREAK THE CODE OF READING.
Use the free letter exploring worksheets as a starting point for opening up discussions like:
- What are the letters in your name?
- How many sounds do you have in your name?
- What other words start with the /m/ sound?
- Does letter M have curvy lines, straight lines, or both?
- Does lowercase m look the same as uppercase M?
Why Is It Important For Kids To Complete Preschool and Kindergarten Letter Worksheets?
Besides the fact that kids love new and varied ways to practice the same skill, there are other reasons they should explore letter tracing worksheets and letter sounds worksheets.
