Letter Activities for Preschoolers:
PRACTICING LETTER NAMES AND LETTER SOUNDS with preschoolers
PRESCHOOL TEACHERS CAN HELP ALL OF THEIR STUDENTS SUCCESSFULLY LEARN LETTERS AND SOUNDS BY PROVIDING A VARIETY OF HANDS-ON LEARNING ACTIVITIES ALL YEAR.
It might seem like some of your students aren’t ready, or interested in, alphabet letter matching games and activities. The key is to keep them curious with engaging literacy centers, games, and activities.
I always introduce alphabet uppercase and lowercase matching activities to the whole group first. Play with a few letters at circle time. Then, as students become comfortable with exactly how to play, I would move the activity to the literacy center, or have the students play in partners or small groups.
Alphabet worksheets and alphabet games are easily differentiated because you can always alter the number of letters you give each child. Some are ready to master five at a time, while others should stick with a smaller number.
Consider how you might meet the needs of all your learners:
- Offer sets of five/ten letters at a time
- Begin working on letter sounds for those that master letter names
- Ensure students know each set inside and out before introducing more letters
- Begin with the letters in each student’s name
Why Is It Important For Kids To Learn Letters?
It’s never too early to begin exposing young learners to the written code of our language. Even toddler activities begin to build a strong foundation for learning to read later.
