These free alphabet printables are perfect for young learners. Make it fun for students to identify beginning sounds, lowercase letters and uppercase letters with a colorful alphabet chart, clip it cards and letter matching puzzles. 

Grab your set below and then join the priority list for our VIP teaching membership, The Science of Reading Formula, so you can unlock access to all of our lesson plans, centers, and activities in one time-saving spot.

Free Alphabet Printables

This ABC pack includes multiple ways to reinforce letter-sound connections. 

First, you’ll find an alphabet chart that is an awesome tool to add to your writing center so students can refer to it when they get stuck on a sound.

Next, you will receive a batch of alphabet clip cards that give kids hands-on practice matching letters to their starting sound. You can make the clip cards self-correcting by marking the correct clip spot on the back of each card.

And last but definitely not least, you will find a set of colorful alphabet puzzles that make it fun for students to practice matching upper and lowercase letters with their sounds.

The bundle is a jam packed with playful learning!

  1. First let me say how muchI love your blog post and printable materials! They are so cute and engage my children to “play”and learn!!
    My one item I would draw to your attention to is in using a xylophone for the phonetic picture of the letter “Xx”…
    Xylophone begins with the “z” sound…
    In the puzzle printables, the children are suppose to “hear” the simialarities of the 2 pictures… There you have 2 different sounds instead of one.
    Thank you for reading my comment :)) Cindy Harper

    1. Hi Cindy, I’m glad you loved the printable materials! Thanks for your feedback :). Unfortunately it’s a bit tricky finding simple words with an initial “x” sound! I’ve uploaded a revised file which includes an additional “Xx” puzzle with two pictures of an x-ray only. I hope that helps. Rosey 🙂

  2. Wow, I love these, I started creating a set of my own for my daughter to learn her letters, but loved that these had great pictures as well. That was until I came upon the puzzle piece for letter Ii. The capital I has an ice cream cone and the lower case i has a “Native American” to be politically correct. Not only am I a little confused, but also shocked that in 2015 I would find something like this. All the other letters were fine, but find it in poor taste that of all the I words you could have used, you chose a race. I have already printed these, but would love a new version with something less offensive.
    Thank you.

    1. Hi Sydney, I’m glad you love the printables – I always try to find the cutest clip art. I appreciate your feedback regarding the letter Ii. I’m from Australia and am grateful for your insight! I’ve since edited the puzzle, so there is now a picture of an igloo and an insect for Ii. I’ve uploaded the revised file, so you can print out the new puzzle now. Sorry to cause the offense, it wasn’t intentional. Thanks again. Kind regards, Rosey. 🙂

  3. Thanks for taking time designing this amazing sources. The will be very useful in my daily work. I love them they’re really cute.

  5. Dear Rosemary,

    I’m a retired teacher and I’m starting to volunteer in a local first grade tomorrow. I couldn’t find my alphabet charts. I looked at several free printable ones on the internet, but I was extremely impressed with yours. Thanks so much for sharing these resources! Debbie Seiling

    1. Thanks for the lovely feedback Debbie, I’m glad it was helpful 🙂

    Hello,

    I’m a new preschool teacher and would love to purchase your letter games. However, whenever I log in to pay pal it tells me it can not complete the purchase at that time. It has been consistent for two days and would love to use these downloads for next week or so. Is there any way I can purchase them directly by credit card and not through paypal? They look amazing and would love to use them. Thank you!

    1. Hi Alyssa,

      I’m so sorry to hear that you’re having difficulty making a purchase! Two ideas:

      1. You can get the pack over in our Teachers Pay Teachers shop here- https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Mega-Alphabet-Game-Pack-325354

      2. Or I can send you an invoice from Pay Pal and then email the pack to you directly. If you’d like to go with that option, just send me a quick email at playdoughtoplato@gmail.com

      I apologize again for your difficulty!

      Appreciatively,

      Malia

    Thank you so much for the FREE printable material.

    This will really help me as I am currently studying a teaching degree and plan on tutoring a good friend’s kids as they need help with their alphabets.

    1. I’m glad they’re helpful Jessica. Wishing you all the best for your teaching degree, it’s a wonderful job. 🙂

  8. I can’t get over how many truly useful resources you have! Thank you so much for sharing your hard work! I’m a second year 1st Grade teacher and these downloads have saved me so much time! Best wishes!

  9. Wow?? Im a new teacher it help me a lot to have many ideas❤️❤️

    I love the freebie, however, was disappointed that the bottom of each page was cut off when I printed them.

    1. Hi Sue, I’m glad you love the freebie. As for the printing issue, you may have to adjust your printer settings to “fit to page” or check that the paper is loaded in the tray correctly. I hope that helps. Kind regards, Rosemary.

  11. Hi!
    Just noticed that your number dice at the bottom of your alphabet poster is incorrect for the numbers 6-10. Hopefully it is easy to correct it. 🙂
    Looking forward to trying some of you activities.

  12. I like the freebie but the picture for the letter C has a dog on it, I guess he has a cold.. for this level I would change it for something easier to associate with the letter C..Children will automatically think Dog “D” then we would need to explain no this is C he has a …”cold”.

    1. I think the point of that activity is for the child to choose the picture that matches the sound the letter makes. Dog was one option for C. The other picture was a caterpillar.

    I have a silly question on Alphabet puzzles for alphabet O, I cannot guess what the green fruit is starting with alphabet O.

    1. Kimberleigh says:

      Hi Kit!

      Not a silly question at all.

      The food next to the O is an olive. 🙂

      I hope this helps!

      Warmly,

      Kimberleigh
