Tracing, matching and following the letter h
Children trace H and h from start dots, and the answer key describes the strokes: two tall sticks and a line across for H, one tall stick and a hump from the middle line for h. In H or h?, they match four capital letters to lowercase ones, with n, m and k in the rows as look-alikes. The page ends with a picture grid where colouring the hat, horse, hammer, helicopter, hippo and hand marks the only path to the house; the cake, pear and nose stay blank.

Teaching tips
1
The nose is in the grid on purpose: n is the letter children most often mix up with h. If a child colours square 8, have them say "nose" and "hand" and listen to how differently they start.
2
Before the maze, have children breathe out a warm h-h-h as if fogging a mirror, the tip printed on the key, so they hear that h is a breath with no voice.

Ways to adjust the Letter H page for different learners.
Support
Start the path together
- Colour square 4, the hat, together so every child knows where the path begins.
- In H or h?, cover the two wrong choices in row a and talk through why h matches H.
- Trace one H and one h, then write one more of each.
On level
Teach as written
- All three sections, with you naming the nine pictures.
- Students run a finger along the finished path from Start to Home to check it connects.
Extension
Find more h words
- Name an h word to replace the cake, one for the pear and one for the nose.
- Write the lowercase letter for two more capitals of their choice, set out like the H or h? rows.
Curriculum alignment.
Each one is checked against the official document. Where the resource covers only part of a standard, the note says so.
Australian Curriculum: English · Foundation
AC9EFLY11Name letters and know their sounds
Students find and name capital H and small h, match four capital letters to their small letters, and pick out pictures that start with the h sound; most of the work is on the letter h, not the whole alphabet.
AC9EFLY10Hear and isolate sounds in words
Students say each picture name and listen for whether it starts with the h sound, which practises picking out the first sound in a word; blending, segmenting and swapping sounds are not covered.
AC9EFLY08Form letters
Students trace and then write capital H and small h following the stroke directions; it practises these two letter shapes only.
