Letters Big and Small

✨

The Spark

Concept

Every letter has two forms: uppercase (capital) and lowercase. Recognising both forms is essential because books and texts use both. Children also need to know the name AND sound of each letter.

Activity

Write your child's name in uppercase letters and then again in lowercase. Point out: Did you know your name can be written two ways? Both say the same thing! Compare the two and discuss what looks the same and different.

Check

Hold up a letter card and ask: What letter is this? What sound does it make? Do this with both uppercase and lowercase forms.

Tip: Letters Have Names AND Sounds

Every letter has a NAME (what we call it) and a SOUND (what it says in words). The letter B is named 'bee' but its sound is /b/. Write the sound each letter makes.

A makes the sound /____/. B makes the sound /____/.

C makes the sound /____/. D makes the sound /____/.

S makes the sound /____/. T makes the sound /____/.

TipThis is an important distinction. When reading, children need the sound, not the name. Practise saying sounds for each letter.
