Thank you for a great resource to use with my Kindergarten students!
Theresa W. –
In my class, we are doing the one where they have to also just trace and write the letter, for now. Many kids struggle with drawing, but even those who have the hardest time really apply themselves because they think it’s fun. We are enjoying these activities and I look forward to a time I can have them also do the writing portion.
Kelly G. –
This is a great resource and I love that my students can do this independently!

I am teaching summer school with some very low EL students and this was such a great resource to use with those still having a hard time with their letters! They are having so much fun with it and learning their letters. I have already seen improvement! Thank you for this cute and valuable resource! I can’t wait to use it during the year
