Alphabet Hide & Seek Pocket Chart Cards | March Rainbow | Letter Recognition
Quantity
This March Rainbow Alphabet Hide & Seek Pocket Chart Game transforms letter recognition into a hands-on, high-engagement learning experience your students will ask to play again and again.
Designed specifically for uppercase letter recognition and lowercase letter recognition, this interactive alphabet game helps young learners build confidence with the alphabet while staying active, curious, and involved.
With its cheerful rainbow theme and playful March and St. Patrick’s Day theme, this alphabet activity is perfect for adding a little seasonal fun to your circle time, literacy centers, and small group instruction while still focusing on foundational early literacy skills.
Instead of passively naming letters on worksheets, students use memory, deduction, and verbal reasoning to locate hidden cards, making alphabet practice meaningful, engaging, and developmentally appropriate.
The St. Patrick's Day Rainbow Theme Alphabet Hide & Seek Pocket Chart Cards are also included in the
Alphabet Hide & Seek Pocket Chart Cards ENDLESS Bundle.

Great morning activity!
I teach at a full day preschool program. I am always looking for activities that will hold the student's interest as well as help with fine motor. These activities are placed out first thing in the morning as students are filing in. Everyone quickly unpacks so that they can participate.

I have a number of these games and they are always a hit. I have my students use tongs to pick up small erasers and cover the pictures so they can work on fine motor skills.

Just what I needed!
I love the "Flip" activities. They're always colorful and engaging. These activities reinforce childrens use of language, labeling, identifying of vocabulary associated with specific themes. My students in the past have loved the Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall flip, so when I wanted to update my beginning of the school year activities I happened to find the September themed one and knew I had to purchase it. I laminate my mats and have the kids cover the images with colored small or large game chips, vase jewels or playdough. If the images on the mats are too busyi make sure to uave extra copies for the kids to engage in matching the images. The kids love it!
