This mobile lesson plan teaches pre-K and kindergarten students about the formation of uppercase letters using technology tools. The lesson uses apps on tablets to have students practice identifying, tracing, and creating letters through guided and independent activities. The goal is for students to learn the proper formation of the weekly letter and be able to self-evaluate their own work.
