About this resource
Alphabet Letter A of the Week Boom Digital Cards is a comprehensive language arts teaching resource, specifically designed for early learning, kindergarten, preschool and grade 1 educators. This set includes a total of 34 Boom Digital Cards that introduce the lowercase and uppercase 'A', reinforcing student understanding.
- The first card offers an introductory view.
- Cards 2 and3 provide guidance on noting the formation of uppercase and lowercase 'A'.
- Cards 4 and 5 help in identifying these letters effectively.
- A puzzling match-up waits on Card number 6, where students get pieces to form letters.
Interactive visuals abound from cards seven through seventeen which are related to letter 'A', enhancing word association with graphics. Young learners enjoy unearthing hidden images by correctly identifying ten Letter A visuals in a grid format provided on cards eighteen and nineteen. Meanwhile, Card Number twenty sets out an interesting drag-and-drop task for alphabet sorting.
- Cards twenty-one through thirty-one offer auditory clues as they make connections between sounds; short or long 'A' sounds associated with ten different images.
The final two slides (thirty-two & thirty-three) encourage learners to exercise their drag-and-drop skills again—this time placing letter 'A' (either uppercase or lower case) into correct position within words! At slide number thirty-four marks their accomplishment towards mastering every aspect of Alphabet Letter ‘A’!
