Let's be honest, phonemic awareness can be SO boring for our students! Whenever we are working on it they want to use the words in sentences or want to see a picture of what that word means! Now they have a picture to connect to the word!

These cards are so much fun my students beg me to work with them! I let them choose their manipulative; whether it is play-dough to tap, legos, chips, or blocks! This also gives those kiddos struggling with blending and segmenting a concrete method to gain those skills!

The cards are broken into each vowel so that you can easily practice phonemic awareness with the vowel you are working on. You can also mix them up so they can practice the skill for each vowel!

-Includes

-vowels; ar,or,er,ur,ir

-R-controlled vowel words with a picture

-Sound boxes on the front

-The word and amount of sounds on the back for self-correction!

DISCLAIMER:

THIS PRODUCT IS NOT ENDORSED BY UFLI FOUNDATIONS.

Bring the fall season into your classroom with this Pumpkin-Themed Alphabet Matching Puzzle Game! Designed specifically for kindergarten and preschool students, this engaging activity helps young learners build crucial letter recognition skills while having fun. With cute pumpkins on each card, students will enjoy practicing both uppercase and lowercase abc matching as they complete each puzzle.

This resource includes three different types of letter matching activities to meet students at different levels of learning:

1. Uppercase to Uppercase Matching: Students match uppercase letters on one half of the pumpkin to their corresponding uppercase letter on the other half.
2. Lowercase to Lowercase Matching: Students match lowercase letters to their corresponding lowercase letter to reinforce letter shape recognition.
3. Uppercase to Lowercase Matching: Students match uppercase letters with their lowercase counterparts, helping them connect the two letter cases.

What’s Included:

• 26 pumpkin-themed letter matching cards featuring letters A-Z.
• Three different puzzle sets:
  • Uppercase to Uppercase
  • Lowercase to Lowercase
  • Uppercase to Lowercase
• The cards are designed with vibrant fall-themed pumpkins, making them perfect for the autumn season!

How to Prepare:

Simply print the cards on cardstock for durability, laminate for long-lasting use, and cut along the dividing lines to separate the puzzle halves. Once prepared, the cards are ready for students to match!

How to Use:

• Letter Matching: Students can work independently or in small groups to match the letter halves and complete the pumpkins. The cards can be mixed up for an added challenge!
• Uppercase to Uppercase Matching: Students match identical uppercase letters, providing essential practice for early learners.
• Lowercase to Lowercase Matching: Reinforce lowercase letter recognition by matching lowercase letters.
• Uppercase to Lowercase Matching: Help students make connections between uppercase and lowercase forms by matching the two.

Differentiation and Extensions:

• For Beginners: Start with only a few letters (A-E) to make the activity more manageable.
• For Advanced Learners: Challenge students by mixing all three puzzle types, or ask them to name the letter sounds as they match.
• Extension Activities: After matching, students can practice writing the letters or engage in letter-sound recognition activities.

Suggested Use:

• Early finishers
• Letter recognition assessments
