This engaging early phonics and tracing resource is designed to support EYFS and SEND children as they begin to explore the alphabet, reading, and handwriting. Each worksheet features two letters of the alphabet — for example, ‘O’ for orange and owl, and ‘P’ for pig and pen — with Boardmaker licensed symbols to aid recognition and understanding. Children trace the letters and words, helping to develop their letter formation, both upper and lower case, and fine motor control. They can then colour the matching pictures and complete a fun reading task, where they underline or match words to the correct symbols. The resource offers a multi-sensory approach that supports early literacy skills while making learning playful and accessible.

This versatile 52-page resource is ideal for EYFS, KS1, and SEND learners, supporting early literacy, counting, and categorising skills. It includes 26 colour and 26 black-and-white pages, one for each letter of the alphabet. Each page features five different symbol cards beginning with the focus letter —for example, on the ‘A’ page, children are encouraged to spot and count how many apples, axes, apes, alligators, and ants they can find. There are five of each symbol hidden on the page, and these can be cut out and sorted into sets to support grouping and matching activities. Teachers may wish to enlarge and laminate the symbols for use in tactile matching games, group tasks, or displays. The resource adapts cleverly for letters like ‘X’, where children identify pictures containing the letter within words, such as ‘fox’ and ‘box’. The black-and-white pages offer additional engagement through colouring opportunities… This hands-on, symbol-rich activity links key areas of learning, including phonics, reading, vocabulary building, set making, counting, sorting, matching and colour. The sheets can be used as stand alone activiites or as a unit of work. Boardmaker licenced.
