Letter Recognition & Discrimination FREEBIES, Ideas, & Resources

As a former Kindergarten teacher, I realize the importance of letter recognition and discrimination. Students need to know their letters before anything else can begin. I know many of you are fortunate enough to have Kinder kiddos who come in knowing their letters thanks to preschool and other early childhood programs. I, however, did not have that luxury – and I know I’m not the only one!

That’s why today I did a round up of some great letter recognition and discrimination activities for you! These activities are sure to help your students master their letters! Use them for centers, take home ideas for parents, or as whole-group or small-group classroom activities. The sky is really the limit! So use them however it fits best in your classroom.

First up we have a Parking Lot activity. Any little boy (or girl!) who’s into cars will like this one! This activity is by the great Marsha MaGuire of A Differentiated Kindergarten. Plus it’s FREE!

Then we have a letter recognition book that my Kinder students loved. I took extra scrapbooking stickers and created a book with one page for each letter. My students LOVED this book! You can read all about it here. 


This alphabet squish activity from Jenae of I Can Teach My Child looks like so much fun! I can’t wait until my own little man is old enough to try it out. =)


If you need some simple letter recognition flashcards, look no more! Michelle of Inspired by Kindergarten has a free set right here.


Are you a fan of my Magic Square Puzzles? Then you’ll love this FREE letter recognition puzzle! It’s great for all students, but especially those who will enjoy the critical thinking aspect of the puzzle.  


Alison at No Time for Flash Cards has a great activity for kinesthetic learners. Check out her blog to see what it’s all about! {I could see this one being great outside with sidewalk chalk, or it would even work inside – maybe on a snowy or rainy day when extra movement is needed…}


Want some good ol’ fashioned letter recognition printables? Pam and Lisa at Over the Big Moon have you covered! Head over to their blog to check it out! 


Want your students to recognize different fonts through a fun puzzle? These puzzles will have students see the different fonts that letters come in. Check out the freebie.


Maybe your students already have most of their letters down. Then let them practice at a higher level – the difference between vowels and consonants! You can get your free maze from me by clicking right here!


This Feed the Monster activity is also from Jenae at I Can Teach My Child. This would be the PERFECT center activity! Or – better yet – send it home with your students as a game to play with their parents or older siblings!


The last idea for this letter recognition roundup is such an easy idea, but it will work! Find out how Joyfully Weary made this activity out of egg cartons by clicking here.


Were those ideas not enough? Then how about 10 more! Anna at The Measured Mom has you covered! Head over to her blog post to get your next ten ideas.
