Your students will love practicing the letters of the alphabet with these fun crowns that they can wear home. These crowns are an excellent complement to your preschool or kindergarten phonics instruction. The interactive activities included reinforce the fundamental phonics/beginning reading skills of recognizing letters and building letter-sound connections.

You will receive one crown and coordinating headband strip for each letter of the alphabet; 21 consonants and 5 short vowels (26 crowns total). A total of 6 activities are included on each crown: color the letter bubbles, color the pictures, match the upper and lowercase letters, trace the letters, write the letters, and draw a picture of something that begins with the letter sound. Your students will be actively engaged as they complete each activity on the crown, while simultaneously building valuable beginning phonics skills!
