Connect the Us

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a connect-the-letters activity centered around the letter ‘U’. Surrounding a central image of an object starting with ‘U’, which appears to be an umbrella, there are several squares each containing a different letter. The students’ task is to draw lines connecting the uppercase ‘U’ and lowercase ‘u’ to the picture in the center. This activity is designed to be both a letter recognition exercise and a way to associate the letter with a commonly known object that starts with the same letter.

The worksheet is teaching students to identify the letter ‘U’ in both its uppercase and lowercase forms. It encourages them to make a connection between the letter and a word that begins with this letter, in this case, “umbrella”. By drawing lines between the letters and the picture, students reinforce their understanding of the letter’s shape and its use in words. This activity also helps to develop hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills as they draw the lines accurately from the letters to the central image.
