U Cut and Paste

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is titled “Letter Sort” and is designed as a cut-and-paste activity for young learners. It features two large trophy images, each labeled with a large ‘U’ and ‘u’ to denote uppercase and lowercase. Below the trophies, there is a row of smaller ‘U’s and ‘u’s enclosed in dashed boxes, which are intended to be cut out. The task for students is to paste the cut-out letters into the correct trophy, sorting them by uppercase and lowercase.

The worksheet’s goal is to teach students the distinction between uppercase and lowercase ‘U’s. It introduces the concept of sorting, a fundamental organizational skill, by having students physically manipulate the letters to their corresponding categories. The cut-and-paste nature of the activity engages the child’s motor skills, requiring precision and care. Moreover, the visual separation of uppercase and lowercase letters reinforces letter recognition, an essential step in early literacy.
