- Spoons and forks (plastic)
- Small wooden circles and squares
- Clothespins and sections of rope (label the rope pieces with paper strips)
- Black and red checkers, or counting chips in two colors
- Pencils and pens
- Pencils and removable pencil-top erasers
- Wooden popsicle sticks colored or painted in two different colors, or large and small popsicle sticks
You may also want to create custom mats or containers for sorting. For instance, if you use spoons and forks, you might have a paper plate for the uppercase letters and another for the lowercase ones.
Variations
Write the letters of both cases on counting chips, and provide two plastic piggy banks (or make simple ones from Pringles cans). Mark one bank with uppercase letters and the other with lowercase, or color code them to the chips. Have the children sort the "coins" into the correct banks.
For a slightly more challenging game, 52 of the same item can be sorted into two containers. Just mark 26 with uppercase letters and 26 with lowercase letters. The possible items are endless; any small object that can be written on or labeled could be used. Try some of these:
- Acorns
- Pebbles
- Large beads
- Buttons
- Twigs, popsicle sticks, short dowels, straws
- Can lids, bottle caps, wine corks
- Old unifix cubes, cuisenaire rods, etc.
- Old puzzle pieces, Legos
- Small wooden blocks
- Marbles (Try the flat ones sold for floral decorating. Write the letters backwards on the flat part; protect with clear sealer, nail polish, or contact paper.)
- Tile chip samples
- Paint color samples (Use a large punch to cut out shapes; write on the letters and then laminate.)
- Mosaic tiles
- Small plastic toys (Check your local party or dollar store.)
- Pennies (Disinfect first)
- Walnut shells, unshelled peanuts

Nice fill someone in on and this mail helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you for your information.
It will not really have success, I feel this way.
I have been browsing online more than 4 hours today,
yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion,
if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you
did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.

Hey, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer,
it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!
Other then that, great blog!
