On the bottom of each alphabet card are three items that start with the featured letter to help students beging to learn the sounds letters make and listen for those beginning sounds in words. ON the letter f example above there is aflamingo, frog and fire hydrant featred on the bottom.
Finally, children will practice forming all the uppercase alphabet letters. Students can then use a dry erase marker to practice tracing letters, or use crayons / markers / colored pencils if you choose not to laminate the alphabet printable.

Dear Beth,
you are a great teacher, thank you so much for sharing this wonderful material, I was looking for this helpful material a long time ago, I live in mexico and I teach elementary school and my students love to use play doh.
Best regard
Dear Beth,
I am so grateful for these awesome play dough mats. I have been homeschooling my 3 girls (14,14 & 11) for 10 years & now with this dreaded virus my class has increased with a few extra students, a grade 1, a pre-schooler, a 16 year old & my son who is 3! We are going to have so much fun with your product, thank you for making it free too 🙂 We live in Zimbabwe, Africa.
Blessings.

Dear Beth,
Thank you so much! I’m teaching my son on the spectrum and surely this will help.
Love from the Philippines!
Hello. I teach preschool and tutor in Kindergarten. I love your playdough mats; however, I can not get them to print on a piece of cardstock without part of the borders being cut off. Do you have a suggestion as to what I can do to prevent losing the border on part of the letters?
Thank you.
Under your printer options click scale to paper size and you should be all set =)
