About this resource

Letter S Letter Sorting Students will strengthen letter recognition and sorting skills with this engaging Letter S activity. The beach-themed capital and lowercase letter mats and matching sandcastle letter cards allow young learners to independently or collaboratively distinguish between uppercase and lowercase S's. Educators can implement this versatile resource in literacy centres, small groups, morning tubs, or as a file folder game to assess and build letter ID, case sensitivity, and sorting abilities. This activity is suitable for Early Years and Foundation children learning phonics. The low-prep printables can be used repeatedly with or without lamination. Skills targeted include letter recognition, distinguishing capital and lowercase letters, and sorting. With two themed mats and 12 tactile cards, this activity brings literacy skills practice to life.
