Learning letters and handwriting activites for Early primary

Letter Scavanger Hunt

This activity takes some adapting. The article from Jackie, author of Ready. Set. Read! is geared around pre-schools and spelling your name in the first instance. But I would share together a fairy story and brainstorm others they know. Just to assist the students in getting in the right mindset. Then they could follow the string around the classroom/ playground to find the letters to spell a popular fairy story. They then have to work together to spell the name correctly.

Learning letters

On this website are a plethera of activity sheets for each letter of the alphabet. From tracing letters to printing words and colouring pictures. The only snag I've found for these is that you will have to copy and paste the area into WORD before printing otherwise formatting tends to be lost. A pain I know but better than drawing the pictures yourself!

Handwriting letters

Lucy Yates put together some handwriting practice pages for the letters. You will have to sign up, free, to TeachersPayTeachers. But its worth it.
