Product description
From the author
Letter M Games is an interactive phonics resource for teaching students to recognize words beginning with the letter M. This game strengthens ability to recognize the /m/ sound at the start of words.
The printable activity includes two game boards, one in color and one in black and white, with different picture sets. Supply a die, movement markers and counters for 1–2 players. To play, students roll the die, move their marker, and cover a corresponding picture on the game board. Teachers can adjust rules for individual, partner or whole group play.
Use Letter M Games during small groups, literacy rotations, or as an independent early finisher activity to reinforce the letter M sound. Skills practiced include beginning letter sounds, counting spaces, following game directions, and listening for initial phonemes. The hands-on game format allows students to learn while having fun.
