Several times a week we work with these (homemade) magnetic letters. We practice matching sounds (phonemes) to letters (graphemes). This is called Orthographic mapping. Matching letter symbols to their sound is an essential skill in learning how to read and spell! I dictate a word to the kids, they repeat the word, finger tap the word, and then "build" the word. The kids enjoy making words and they are learning so much!
Here's a little glimpse.
