The Letters in My Name

Write your name, count its letters and find each letter. A free name activity for kindergarten and grade 1. Part of our letters in my name alphabet collection.

How do I use this resource?

Use this early in the year when names are the most meaningful words kids know. Once finished, have children compare with a partner: whose name is longer, and which letters do they share? It also makes a quick class graph of name lengths. If a name has more than 9 letters, add boxes on the back. At home, try it with siblings' or parents' names too and compare results.

These are written for Kindergarten students, roughly ages 5-6. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
