School's here in Australia are half way through their year, and have most likely mastered the alphabet by now (so please pin this post for next year fellow Aussie early years teachers!!). But on the other side of the world - school is just going back, and I'm sure there would be some eager 5 year olds who would love this activity.
Here are some of my other alphabet posts that you may find useful
- Alphabet Sorting Box - great when children have learnt all of the letters
- Phonics Treasure Baskets - perfect as children begin identifying what letter simple words/objects start with
- Alphabet Pebbles - great for introducing the alphabet, or making simple words
- Twenty Six Letters - 26 hands on ways to learn the letters of the alphabet. Perfect for children just beginning to learn their letters.
