Reinforce letter recognition with our versatile Letter Hunt Worksheet. This simple yet engaging resource encourages students to explore, identify, and match letters in a variety of interactive ways. By offering multiple activity options, it can be easily adapted to suit the needs of individual learners, small groups, or whole-class phonics sessions.

The worksheet provides a clear space for students to practise recognising both uppercase and lowercase letters. By layering additional materials such as magazine cut-outs, stamps, or magnets, students engage in a hands-on experience that strengthens their understanding of letter shapes and sound associations. This activity also promotes fine motor skills as learners cut, glue, stamp, or place items onto the worksheet.

Flexible and adaptable, the Letter Hunt Worksheet can be used repeatedly across the year to consolidate letter knowledge. Whether used as part of a structured phonics program, a literacy rotation, or an independent activity, it gives students the chance to connect letters with real-world print and objects in a meaningful way.
