Originally reviewed on TPTMy preschool students love these mats and it is so easy to target all learning needs/levels with one simple mat! The prep was minimal and I am able to add to the center as each letter is introduced. It has been a game changer for the students that need a bit of a challenge, as well as, the students that need to continue working on pre-writing skills for letter formation!

Originally reviewed on TPTThis resource was great with my new ELL beginners! It really allows them to apply their knowledge of beginning letter sounds. They’re a great worksheet to have on hand at all times when laminated too. It works well in small groups, or as early finisher work as well!

Originally reviewed on TPTI use these playdough mats with my intervention groups. They love rolling the playdough to make the shapes of the letter and to identify the pictures that begin with the target sound. Thank you so much!

Originally reviewed on TPTMy preschool and kindergarten students love this activity! I love how it keeps students engaged and also adds differentiation very easily. I have some students who are only working on building the letter while others are ready to locate the letter and/or find pictures that begin with that letter.
