Play Dough Alphabet Mats in ALL Austalian Fonts

Play Dough Alphabet Mats in ALL Austalian Fonts

$4.00

Playdough is certainly a favourite in my Prep classroom so I combined it with letter learning and designed these Alphabet Playdough Mats. There are 6 files in this pack containing all of the 6 Australian curriculum fonts.

You will receive a zipped folder containing a set of mats for each of the following fonts:

  • Queensland Beginners

  • New South Wales Print

  • South Australian Beginners

  • Victoria, Northern Territory and Western Australian Print

  • Tasmania Beginners

  • BONUS Standard Kindergarten Print

Creating letters with playdough is a wonderful sensory experience allowing children to feel the alphabet. As they squeeze, roll, and bend the playdough to form the uppercase and lowercase letters, they are developing those all important fine motor skills as well.

There are 40 downloadable mats in A4 size in each pack. I have used beautiful photographic backgrounds to reflect the associated phoneme on each mat. Every one of the 26 letters of the alphabet are represented at least once. There are two mats for each vowel with both the long and short vowel sounds included. Your children will love forming their own playdough letters on top of the large letters on each mat.

I like to add props to my playdough table to further enhance the learning experience. Each mat provides opportunities for you to add additional items to encourage open ended creative play and vocabulary development. For instance, when I use the Hh mat with the beautiful image of herbs as the background, I also add either a vase of cut herbs or a small herb plant. The children’s fine motor skills can be further developed by adding scissors so that they can cut some herbs to add to the playdough.

Use these 40 mats to

  • Teach, practise and revise letter recognition.

  • Teach letter formation.

  • Learn letter sounds and symbols.

  • Develop fine motor skills.

  • Build vocabulary

  • Use as Alphabet Display Posters.

For repeated use, be sure to laminate the mats or slide them into a sheet protector before using them.
