How this product aligns with the EYLF

Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
The Letter Frieze encourages children to engage in play-based learning by providing a hands-on resource that promotes exploration of letter sounds and their corresponding images. As children match images with their initial letters, they are actively involved in a process of inquiry that enhances their understanding of literacy concepts in a playful context.

Building language, imagination, and social skills
This product supports the development of language skills as children articulate the sounds associated with each letter and discuss the images they represent. Through collaborative play, children can share ideas, negotiate roles, and build social connections, fostering both language development and imaginative play.
