ALPHABET MATCHING WORKSHEET
SPRING-TIME ALPHABET MATCHING
After the worksheets have been printed, do a few quick things to prep them for
your preschooler to use.
Tape the back of the two black and white alphabet tulip printables so that it
is one long sheet.
Laminate and cut out the lowercase tulip matching cards for durability; not a
deal-breaker, but with little hands and the ability to re-use the letter cards
for something else or for another child, laminating will help keep them
longer.
Provide your preschooler with blue, red, purple, yellow, and pink crayons {green, too if your preschooler would like to color in the stems}.
MATCH & COLOR ALPHABET WORKSHEET
Put the colored tulip cards in a pile and have your child grab one and identify the letter.
Then have your child find the matching uppercase letter on the black and white sheet and color the tulip the coordinating color.
For instance, your child will color the uppercase letter A blue, the uppercase letter D, pink.... and so on.
Continue matching and coloring the tulips until your child creates a colorful alphabet garden of our favorite springtime flower- tulips!
If your child chooses, provide a green crayon so that he/she can color the stems and leaves.
As your child is working on matching the uppercase and lowercase alphabet tulips, it is the perfect time to also reinforce letter sounds, too.
