How to Use the Letter Tray

The Letter Tray supports phonics instruction. This feature allows students to manipulate letters, promoting exploratory learning and reinforcing foundational reading skills in a playful, engaging way.

Available for students to use independently, it serves as a powerful tool for extra practice at home or in learning centers, allowing students to explore and learn at their own pace.

How to use the Letter Tray

Students will begin by clicking on the Letter Tray tile on their student dashboard.

The Letter Tray allows you to drag letters from the tray onto the work area and arrange them to spell words or sounds, break words apart, and group letters as desired.

To move a letter onto the work area, click on the letter and drag it down. Once on the board, letters can be moved around, and multiples of the same letter can be moved onto the work area. Letters can also be stacked on top of each other.
