Alphabet Domino Game – Uppercase & Cursive Letters - Grade 1

A Fun Letter Matching Game to Practise Uppercase and Cursive Letters

Learning to recognize the same letter in different forms can be challenging for young learners. This alphabet domino game gives children a fun, hands-on way to match uppercase letters with their cursive lowercase forms while developing letter recognition and alphabet knowledge.

Children observe, compare and match letters as they play, making this a simple and engaging printable alphabet activity for Grade 1.

🔤 Learn Letters Through Play

The concept is simple: children connect a letter in uppercase with the same letter written in cursive.

For example:

A → a
B → b
C → c

Through repeated matching, children learn that the same letter can look different depending on how it is written.

This hands-on approach helps make early reading and alphabet practice more concrete and enjoyable.
