Dinosaur Alphabet Match eBooks

 Dinosaur Alphabet Match Color Version

Dinosaur Alphabet Match - Black Line Version

Have fun learning and practicing the alphabet with this cute dinosaur alphabet game/activity. Use this for your dinosaur unit or anytime of the year. The uppercase letters have a larger dinosaur and the lowercase letters have smaller (baby) dinosaur. You can laminate these cards so they last longer.

This file was created for US Letter (8 1/2 x 11 inch paper). It should work on A4 paper.

SMALLER CARDS

If you want to print smaller cards, go to print and go down to "Layout", then "pages per sheet". If you do "2", this will give you seven page with 4 letters per page (upper and lower case on each page). If you do "4" per page, this will give you four pages with 8 letters per page. If you do "6" per page, this will give you three pages with 12 per page.

Buttons
Button Button, Who Has The Button? 
This is played with more than three people. Sit in a circle on the floor. Pass the button (make sure you don’t let anyone see you have it) to another person’s cup shaped hands. The person drops it in someone's hands. At the end say, "Button, button, who has the button?". Each person needs to tell you if they have the button when they are asked the question.

Option #1
Use the pictures located here and bears (under "Bear Game") to view links of the objects.  You can use the pictures located at Homepreschool.com: Beginning Sound Pictures (Object Page) A book, ball, bird, banana, bell, bear, balloon, boy, and bat for this game.  Make 2 copies of each. Color (or you don't have to) the pictures and cut them out.  Cut the amount you need of construction paper (blue, brown, or black) to be 1 1/2 x 2 1/2".  Glue the picture on one side of the paper.  Write the word near the picture.  Laminate or cover with clear contact paper.

How to play:  Have the child turn two cards over and match the same picture.  Say the name of the object.  If the child does not get a match, turn the cards back over.  Repeat the process until all of the cards have matching pairs.

Option #2:  Have the child close his/her eyes and spell the word (if the child reads).

Option #3: Do the above options but write the word in a foreign language (near the picture) or you can write two languages (native on the top and foreign on the bottom) of the picture.

Here are the words in Spanish for the "Beginning Sound Pictures":
book - libro, ball - pelota, bird - pájaro, banana - plátano, bell - campana, bear - oso, balloon - globo, boy - niño, and bat - bate

Free Time
Play with: body, birds, butterflies, or other "B" puzzles

"Bb" Book
Follow the instructions at Letter Book if you want to make a book.
I used a blue piece of paper and a glued blue and brown piece of yarn for the upper and lower case letters.

Page 1: On the top left hand side write, "Bb".  Use the pictures of different "B" words, stickers or pictures from ads or magazines of butterflies, bears, berries, birds, bee, B dinosaurs, bats, etc.

Label the pictures.
