Lakeshore Learning Lakeshore Classroom 240 Magnetic Letters Kit

The Lakeshore Classroom 240 Magnetic Letters Kit is a versatile and comprehensive classroom resource designed to support the development of early literacy skills. With 240 lowercase magnetic letters in a range of bright colours, this kit encourages collaborative and independent exploration of letters, words, and sentences on any magnetic surface. Letters are colour-coded-vowels in one colour and consonants in another-making it easier for students to identify letter types and build words confidently. The compartmentalised storage box keeps everything organised, and labelled sections make it quick and easy to find the right letter during literacy activities. The generous quantity of each letter ensures that all students can actively participate during small group or whole-class tasks. From simple name recognition to more complex word-building exercises, this set is an essential tool for literacy-rich learning environments.
