Letter Identification & Sounds Intervention/Center Games - Valentine's

The Letter Identification & Sounds Intervention/Center Games - Valentine's is a fun and interactive educational tool that blends holiday enjoyment with valuable English instruction. Focused on teaching young learners letter recognition and phonics, it offers educators an innovative approach to keep their students engaged during school breaks.

• Games:

This resource comprises two main activities where learners identify lowercase letters and match them with their uppercase pairs. They also recognize the sounds corresponding to each letter. The games can be adapted for group work, smaller clusters, or as individual assignments.

• Thematic Actions:

The games incorporate themed actions such as giving high-fives around the group elicited by prompts like “We make a great pair!” states on picture cards—infusing interactivity into learning!

• Inclusive Gameplay:

Rather than focusing on 'winning' or 'losing,' these games emphasize correct responses without score tracking—a boon for students struggling with competitive game formats.

Included Components in our Themed Packet:

1. 2-game instructions
2. A two-part easy-assembly game board
3. 26 lowercase alphabet cards
4. 10 thematic vibrant picture cards
Note: Distinctive patterned backgrounds are prepped for letter and picture card backs.
