Birdhouse Letter Sliders

I made birdhouse letter sliders for the children to work on letter recognition.  I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and then laminated them.  I cut the lines on the birdhouses with an exacto knife and set them out with the letter sliders in a basket.

The children picked a slider and pulled it through the birdhouse.  They then identified the letter shown.  When they finished with one slider they removed it and put a new one in.  Play continues until all of the sliders have been used.
