I love when I walk into the classroom on a Monday morning and I feel prepared for the week ahead. Lesson plans are filled in, copies are made, and supplies are laid out. Let’s go! Then, five minutes after those students arrive, it begins to unravel-unexpected interruptions, late students, absent students, and the list goes on. Such is the life of a teacher! While I can’t help you with the unknowns of your day, I did create the Free Printable Letter V Worksheets: Tracing, Letter Recognition, Alphabet Sounds to ease your burden of lesson planning.

Learning About Letters of the Alphabet:
LETTER WORKSHEETS FOR PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN
LEARNING UPPERCASE AND LOWERCASE LETTERS IS AN IMPORTANT CONCEPT IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. STUDENTS NEED LOTS OF REPETITION AND HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE THAT GOES WAY BEYOND THE LETTER OF THE WEEK.
Learning the alphabet is a tall order! Kids learn not only letter names, but they must learn to discern between lowercase and uppercase letters, letter sounds, and they need extra practice writing and forming letters correctly.
The more fluent our preschoolers and kindergarteners can become with alphabet skills, the easier it will be for them to eventually learn how to read.
I made the preschool letter worksheets to hit so many key skills! The packet includes: letter tracing worksheets, letter recognition worksheets, and letter sounds worksheets!
You can mix and match activities to suit the needs of your students. I always encourage throwing in a bit of creativity to turn each printable activity into a hands-on activity by adding manipulatives or framing it as a game.
Here’s what you’ll find in the Letter V worksheets for preschool and kindergarten:
- 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 V
- Rainbow Writing: A colorful way to complete a tracing letter worksheet
- First Sound: Pictures and words to help children hear the /v/ sound at the beginning of words
- Do-a-dot Marker: Large letter shapes to help young learners explore Letter V
What Can Preschoolers Learn From Worksheets For The Letter V?
PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN LETTER WORKSHEETS
HANDWRITING WORKSHEETS ARE NECESSARY FOR STUDENTS TO PRACTICE CORRECT LETTER FORMATION. HOWEVER, THEY DON’T NEED TO BE TEDIOUS.
Help your students identify and write upper and lower case letters while also posing thoughtful questions about letters.
- What are the letters in your name?
- How many sounds do you have in your name?
- What other words start with the /v/ sound?
- Does letter V have curvy lines, straight lines, or both?
- What letter did you learn last week? Is it similar or different from Letter V?
Why Is It Important For Kids To Learn Letters and Sounds?
Besides the fact that kids love feeling smart and confident, learning letter sounds and names helps them develop key skills to grow upon as they progress in school.
Visual Discrimination
Identifying letters (both lower and uppercase) encourages kids to use visual cues to discern between them. This is an important skill when later discerning letters to decode words.
Improve Understanding
As children learn to name letters and sounds, it helps them connect to what “reading” really means and gives them valuable insight and background to the idea that they, too, will soon learn to read!
Automaticity
The goal is for children to effortlessly recognize letter names and sounds interchangeably before they begin to put the pieces together to learn to read. If recalling sounds is too laborious, it will be difficult for a child to read with fluency.
Build Confidence
Kids need lots of time and repetition to accurately name all of the letters and sounds. Imagine how proud they feel when they accomplish such a lofty goal!
