This is a great way for students to practice and consolidate their recognition of uppercase and lowercase letters of the alphabet. Each card contains a letter at the top and students must match this to the correct matching uppercase or lowercase letter/s below. This resource includes 26 cards.
These cards can be used as write'n'wipe cards, 'peg clip' cards or covered with counters.
