WHEN WE AIR WRITE LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET, WHY IS IT HELPFUL FOR STUDENTS?

Air writing is more than just fun—it’s a powerful tool for learning. When students air write letters of the alphabet, they are engaging multiple senses:

  • Visual (seeing the letter)
  • Auditory (hearing the letter name and sound)
  • Kinesthetic (moving the arms to form the shape)

This type of multisensory learning taps into embodied cognition, helping students remember how to form letters by using the whole body. It also builds shoulder stability and fine motor control, which are essential for handwriting success.

HOW TO USE THIS PACKET AND SONG

Start by using the song as a warm-up activity. It gets the arms and hands ready to write and helps focus student attention. Encourage learners to stretch tall, trace big letter shapes in the air, and sing along to lock in the letter formation.

After singing and air writing through the entire alphabet, pick a few target letters to reinforce using the FREE printable packet below. This is a great opportunity to slow down, practice visual-motor skills, and transition into writing on paper or with other tools.
