Things to use with the ABC Letter Practice Dice

I always get asked what we used with the printables and in the post. Here is a list of all the items we used.

How to make the folding dice

I rarely use the folding dice because we use the cube dice inserts to change it up easier.

I print the ABC dice we are going to use. If you plan to use it a lot I recommend printing on cardstock.

I cut the dice out and then fold all the lines. You can see what the dice looks like after it is cut out and folded.

I start to fold the paper into a square. While I am doing this I tape two folds in the middle on the dice. You can do the outside but I like at least one set of tape on the inside.

Ways to use the ABC Writing Practice Dice

You can roll the dice and place it on the mat and then write the letter below. I have the writing practice page in a sheet protector and use dry erase markers. I like to store them that way. You can write and erase and repeat several times!

Don’t want to do the dice. You don’t have to! Just place one of the letters and do the same as above! When I use just the cards I print them on cardstock to help them last longer.

Now you can always use the bigger mat for letters. You can do one letter at a time. I like to place it in a sheet protector. (I store them that way with the cube inserts and mats together). Then I use a big dry erase marker for the tracing.

Another fun writing center is the writing pages. You write the letter on each line. You have two line options. You can write until you read the end.

Or you can check up the letter writing with the number dice. You can roll the ABC dice and number dice together. Then write the letter how many times comes up on the number dice.

So the letter M came up and the number 6. So you write the letter M six times.

Now if you don’t want to use the dice and all you don’t have to! I love to print the letters on color cardstock to change up the season. Then I put them on a ring to keep them together for the learning center.

  1. I’m going to tuck this great dice idea away for a few months until my son is ready. He loves dice so I know it will be fantastic once his fine motor skills come along a bit more. I pinned it to my preschool board. Thanks!

  2. I’m wanting to download your letter dice, is there a way to download it w/o downloading the application? It is not compatible with my O.S. or with the Surface…not sure which.

    The dice look like a fun way to get my girls to practice their writing while making it fun.

    Thanks!
