The preschoolers explored the difference between the uppercase and lowercase letters in their name today. First, we practiced how to spell our name by glueing the letters in order. Then we pointed to the first letter of our name and discussed that this is the uppercase letter, we talked about how the first letter of a name is always uppercase. Next we ran our fingers across the rest of the letters in our name. We discussed that these letters are lowercase. We chose a color for our uppercase letter and a color for our lowercase letters. We strengthened our fine motor muscles and practiced our crayon grip while coloring. Have fun exploring the difference between uppercase and lowercase letters with your preschooler!
We prepared for one of our daily homework activities today in small groups. Becoming successful writers begins with our very own names. We focused on using an uppercase first letter and lowercase letters for the remaining letters in our name. It’s time to transition to lowercase letters in our writing. Please put this into practice during this activity at home. Your child’s homework folders will be coming home in their backpacks next week.
