This is a Busy Learning Uppercase and Lowercase Letters Activity Packet. This was designed and most beneficial for young learners including preschoolers, Kindergarten, and 1st grade students.

If you want to use this activity over and over again, you can laminate these pages after you print them off. You can apply Velcro dots to the letters. All you have to do is store the cut-out lowercase letters into a storage baggy, so students can keep up with them easily. Pages 6 and 7 have the alphabet printed with a tracing font. Students will practice tracing the uppercase and lowercase letter. You can print this many times, so students can get as much practice as they can with a pencil. If you want to switch it up, you can laminate these pages and they will be able to practice with a dry erase marker.

Farm Animals and their Young/Babies - Matching Puzzle Game
Science, Basic Science, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, Games, Activities
Our children absolutely love to play this highly engaging Farm Animals puzzle game! Cut each puzzle along the line in the middle and invite your children to match each farm animal with its offspring. These puzzles offer an extremely fun way to develop observational skills. Children may not know which animal matches with which young, however through looking closely at the characteristics of each animal, they will love to work out the similarities and differences between the different pictures and make educated guesses about which animals match together. Why not extend learning by discussing with your children the similarities and differences between older and younger animals and also between the different types of animals? Extend children’s vocabulary by describing animal body parts such as tail, hooves, paws, fur, snout, etc. Ask questions such as ‘Which animal has the longest/shortest tail?’ The 10 puzzles also each have a unique way of fitting together which enables self-checking. We hope you have as much fun with your children using these puzzles as we have!
