This is a favorite of my emergent readers who are working on letter recognition, letter names, and letter sounds! 🍎⁣ They love flipping the cards and finding the matches!
⁣
I put a few of these in our Word Work station so they will have continued practice on letters as they work with a friend! 🍏⁣
⁣
🤷🏽‍♀️ I've had these FOREVER....I either found them or they were given to me, so I'm not sure where they're from!⁣
