Why Teach the Letter A First?

Since “A” is the first letter of the alphabet, it’s often introduced at the beginning of letter-recognition activities.

It’s a vowel, meaning kids will see and hear it frequently in words like apple, ant, and astronaut.

My Letter A printables are designed to:

✔️ Build fine motor skills through tracing and coloring.
✔️ Reinforce phonics by recognizing the “A” sound in words.
✔️ Encourage letter recognition in both uppercase and lowercase forms.
