Letter hunt

Learning goal

Practice visually recognizing the first letter of one's own name — a key skill in preschool and early first grade.

How it works

• The student's own initial is shown large at the center of the page, as the model letter.
• Around it, about twenty circles each contain one uppercase letter.
• A configurable number of circles (5 by default) repeat the model letter; the rest show different, randomly drawn letters.
• The student finds every circle that contains the same letter as the model.

Customizable

• Number of circles containing the target letter
• Whether accents are kept
• Color of the model letter
• Whether the student's name appears as a signature at the bottom of the page
