Easy Letter Recognition Activities for Kindergarten

Are you looking for letter recognition activities for virtual learning applications? We can help!

With our series of Alphabet Interactives, beginning readers get to practice letter identification and letter-sound correspondence in a digital drag-and-drop environment. The interactive slides contain activities that can be completed at school or home, giving those early readers just one more way to learn the alphabet.

Our Letter O Alphabet Interactive is a great way to encourage children to use computers, explore technology and relate letters and letter sounds.  Students will drag and drop octopi, otters, and other ocean creatures to identify letters, build them, and then sort objects by beginning sound. 

Students will show increased letter recognition skills and improved letter-sound correspondence through this activity.
