Every letter has two shapes, and a child who is learning to read has to know that B and b are the same letter. Each box on this sheet lists four or five capital letters on the left and the same letters in lowercase on the right, mixed up, with a dot next to every letter. The child draws a line from each capital to its lowercase partner.

Set Letters to the whole alphabet or to one part of it — A to F, G to L, M to R or S to Z — to practise a few letters at a time, and Pairs to four or five letters a box. The lowercase letters are always mixed up, so no line goes straight across every time. The letters use a typeface with the simple a and g children see in early books.

Press New sheet for new letters, lock the boxes you like, or Shuffle a single box. The answer key prints on a second page only when you ask for it and shows which row each line goes to. Every sheet prints in color or black and white, on US Letter or A4. Nothing to sign up for.
