Alphabet Playdough Mats A-Z
By Mrs. Agusta Teaching Resources
Alphabet playdough mats A–Z for preschool and kindergarten! These hands-on letter mats help students practice uppercase and lowercase letter recognition, letter formation, tracing, and beginning sounds while building fine motor skills with playdough. Each mat has four activities in one. Students build the letter with playdough, find the target letter in a letter box, trace the letter, and fill a picture that starts with that letter. With one mat for every letter from A to Z, you can focus on one letter at a time or set out several for students to choose from during centers.
