We went in alphabetical order when creating the games.<\/p>\n<p>This game board has a path students follow as they match uppercase and lowercase letters.<\/p>\n<p>The fun rainbow and gold theme is fun for March. We left the leprechauns off so you would be able to use it at other points in the year as well. Of course, it will still fit into your St. Patrick&rsquo;s Day fun in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>We have provided this game with a rainbow striped background along with a white background. Both games have color but the white backgrounds will be a good option for those needing to conserve colored ink.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2797\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"496\" data-pin-description=\"This rainbow alphabet game will be a fun addition to your early learning centers this March, especially for St. Patrick's Day.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2797 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"496\" data-pin-description=\"This rainbow alphabet game will be a fun addition to your early learning centers this March, especially for St. Patrick's Day.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2.jpg.webp 750w, https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2-300x198.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thekindercorner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/rainbow-abc-2.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\">How to Set Up your Rainbow Alphabet Game<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Begin by printing in color (or in black and white if you choose.)

When playing with my daughter, I noticed that it was a challenge for her to know the correct direction. I did not add an underline to the p. Underlining the p made the letter look different since it went through the middle. The p fell on the page with our web site watermark. I&rsquo;m hoping the name of the site being at the bottom in find print will make it easier for students to determine the correct direction for this letter.
