Worksheet 1: Mitten Match

Materials: Mitten Match worksheet (1 per child), pencils Outcome: Match uppercase letters A, K, M, N, and W to the lowercase versions.
Write the following letter pairs on the board and have volunteers name them: Aa, Kk, Mm, Nn, and Ww. Distribute the worksheet. Instruct children to draw mitten strings (lines) to connect the mittens with the same letter.

Extra Help: Use the uppercase and lowercase letters written on the board for reference. Going Further: Work with a friend to color the matched mittens. Take turns saying letters and choosing colors for each other; for example, "Color your W mittens red."

Worksheet 2: Letter Cutouts

Materials: Scissors and a scrap of black paper (for teacher use), Letter Cutouts worksheet (1 per child), pencils Outcome: Match positive and negative images of alphabet letters B, G, P, R, and S.
Cut a letter C from a scrap of black paper. Show children the cutout and the scrap (positive and negative images of the letter C). Show how the two pieces fit together. Distribute the worksheet. Explain that children should draw lines to match the scraps and cutouts pictured on the page.

Going Further: Let children use alphabet stencils to draw letters. Encourage children to discuss the positive and negative images of the letters.

Worksheet 3: Caterpillar Colors

Materials: Caterpillar Colors worksheet (1 per child), crayons Outcome: Identify uppercase and lowercase Ee, Ff, Hh, Jj, Tt, and Uu.
Have children name the letters and color the crayons in the key at the top of the worksheet. Explain that areas in the picture that are marked E or e should be colored red, areas marked F or f should be colored yellow, and so on. Let children work independently to color the picture.

Extra Help: Before children begin coloring, have them use yellow to circle the E in the key. Then have them find and circle the E in the picture. Continue with the remaining letters and colors. Children can use their colored circles as guides when they color the picture. Going Further: Help children learn about real caterpillars by looking at and reading nonfiction books. Make a short list of written facts.
