Montessori SCRIPT sandpaper letter tablets, uppercase or lowercase

Montessori Rough Letter Tablets - DIY Kit with 26 Plates

These 26 painted and varnished wooden tablets allow you to make your own Montessori script sandpaper letters (print script), in uppercase or lowercase. An essential tool in Montessori pedagogy, sandpaper letters train a child's ear to analyze sounds and the phonetics of language while preparing their hand for writing.

Why make your own sandpaper letters?

DIY manufacturing allows you to personalize your materials according to your educational needs (uppercase or lowercase), to choose the colors adapted to your Montessori progression, and to save money while creating professional quality materials.
