I was in Target the other day and was greeted by a freshly stocked Dollar Spot. I may or may not have let out a little squeal. Among the items I picked up were some alphabet posters and letter stickers {both $1}. Who can resist an alphabet chart for a dollar…especially one with adorable pictures?!
Apparently I can’t, so I bought like ten a couple of them because I wanted to make some EASY alphabet activities for Kindergarten with them.
As a Kindergarten teacher you can never, never have enough alphabet activities. You could also make these alphabet activities for Kindergarten with alphabet flashcards, but they didn’t have any and cutting the pictures apart was much faster {and more comfortable} than driving all over town on a scavenger hunt.
Not to mention, it’s like one thousand degrees outside and I would rather cut and prep inside my air conditioned home watching Netflix on the couch instead of sweating my buns off running to different stores!






Alphabet Letter Sort – Letter Experts:
This first activity is called Letter Expert. I love that there’s so many fine motor skills going on in this activity. Students begin by tracing the letters at the top. Having small dots to show students where to put their pencil is a huge bonus (especially at the beginning of the year).
Next, students cut apart the letters on the right side of the paper, sort the uppercase and lowercase letters, and glue them in their respective columns. Last, students color the matching uppercase and lowercase letters. I have my students use two different colors: one for uppercase letters, one for lowercase.
You can also have students rainbow write the letters at the top of the page. You could have students rainbow write the letters AND use bingo dabbers at the bottom…talk about a magical combination!Click on the picture below to check out this activity. Be sure to download the preview file for a freebie!
