Learning Goals: Phonetics, Letter Recognition, Teacher-Directed, Letter-Sound Knowledge, Vocabularly
Show students photos of objects/ animals/ things that start with all of the letters of the alphabet.
Have students identify each photo first.
Give students each a letter card or letter magnet and have them identify the photo associated with that letter (e.g., ‘Z card’ would match a photo of a zebra).
Instruct students to place their letter on the photo that matches the letter.
This can also be done with having them label something in the room or in a smaller group where students get multiple letters each.
Photos of objects/ animals
Letter cards or magnets
This activity reinforces letter recognition and phonetics through gameplay with a peer, directed by the teacher.
