Visual Discrimination with Letters Workbook 4

Develop children’s ability to visually discriminate between letters and words. Children are asked to cut out boxes with 5-letter words and then match them to the same words by sticking.

These activities should ideally be provided in conjunction with formal teaching of the alphabet. Not only is the ability to discriminate between letters an important skill for learning the alphabet but also a valuable pre-reading skill where children need to learn how to distinguish between letter and word shapes. It is not necessary for children to know their alphabet when undertaking the activities in this workbook as the emphasis is on the distinction of letter shapes and words.

The letters that children are required to cut, match and stick on each page are as follows:

stops, child, light, haste
would, quiet, chain, taste
helps, cause, toast, years
could, brain, grace, dress
guest, fight, ghost, smoke
roast, tears, green, shoot
right, train, press, block
money, chest, cards, sweet
grain, tight, funny, greet
clock, metre, sheet, choke
paste, chess, stock, baked
frock, dream, ready, plate
might, guess, jumbo, party
bunny, trace, slate, dolly
stain, tweet, quick, cream
grate, jolly, sleet, write
bring, plant, black, trick
clown, sight, crate, couch
wrong, brick, chalk, crown
great, click, brown, night
