Textured Touch And Trace Uppercase The Best Multisensory Experience For Learning Alphabet Letter R

Nice quality

Quality is very good and can't wait to learn alphabet with my son

Ok, they are flash cards. A lame but sometimes necessary material for a early childhood special ed teacher. But for some reason, every one of my kids LOVE these! Typically developING children and those with special needs. They are thick and easy to handle. The box has a satisfying feel to it. I name the letter and the kids repeat the letter name while tracing the raised letter following the dots that promote correct letter formation. Sounds lame, I know. But so does the idea of popping bubble wrap until you do it! Buy these!

My students love tracing with their finger! Very helpful tool when using multi sensory strategies for learning letters!

I do not really like using flash cards but for simple things like alphabets, numbers, and shapes they really are a pretty useful tool (especially for someone like me, who is not a teacher). Along with this set I also have 2 other sets, one by Lakeshorelearning and the other by Oriental Trading Company (OTC).1. The size of the cards are a nice size for little ones, with the Carson-Dellosa set being a bit larger than 4x5 inches, the Lakeshorelearning set being 4x5 inches and the OTC set being 3.5x3.5 inches2. The quality (thickness) of the cards is also good with the Lakeshorelearning set and the Carson-Dellosa set being about the same card thickness. They both also have a glossy finish to the card. The OTC card set is the thickest and it has a matte finish to the card.3. The texture of the letters themselves varies, with the Lakeshorelearning set being the most and best textured (medium'ish grit sand paper) while the Carson-Dellosa set is like a fine sand paper and the OTC set has a soft velour like texture. It just depends on your personal preference as to which texture you like best.4. When it come to teaching the littles ones to trace (write) the letters with their fingers the Carson-Dellosa set shows them where to start and stop with green and red dots and numbered arrows show which direction to trace. The OTC set just has numbers and arrows to show the little ones how to trace (write) the letters and the Lakeshorelearning set has no tutorials on the cards to show the kids how to correctly trace (write) the letters.5. OTC's set comes with both uppercase and lowercase letters together on the cards. While you have to purchase a separate uppercase set and lowercase set with both Carson-Dellosa set and Lakeshorelearning's set.6. The price of the OTC set is only $7.99 (when I purchased it on their website). While the price of the Lakeshorelearning set is $15.99 and the price of the Carson-Dellosa set is about $13.50. And you have to remember that with the Carso-Dellosa set and the Lakeshorelearning set you have to purchase the uppercase and lowercase sets separately so your expense doubles.*For the price: Oriental Trading Company*For the card durability: All 3 a pretty durable*For the letter quality: Lakeshorelearning and Carson-Dellosa*For (self) teaching: Carson-Dellosa and Oriental Trading Company
