Beginning Sounds Worksheets FREE
Free Beginning Sounds Activity Worksheets for Preschool/Kindergarten
Why do you need these Beginning Sounds Worksheet (free by the way)?
Once you start teaching your child phonics, it’s a good idea to help them make the correlation between words and letters. This is where beginning sounds come in.
I’ve created these beginning sounds worksheets free so that you can do just that!
These CVC words worksheets are a great way to introduce beginning sounds to your child.
If your child is young enough to be learning beginning sounds, (take a bite of cake every time I say “beginning sounds” haha) chances are they’re young enough to not really be doing (or at least won’t enjoy) “formal work,” so as always I’ve made sure there is plenty of colouring to be done (and of course this means the worksheets are printer friendly - win!).
These worksheets have an image missing missing letters at the beginning of the word where your child can attempt to guess and then write their own letter.
The last 2 worksheets are a little different. After doing some writing it gives your child an opportunity to do a hands on “game” where they can cut and stick the letters rather than write the beginning sounds.
These kinds of beginning sounds activities for preschool (or kindergarten) are a great way to them to get a better understanding of how letter sounds work.
At this age teaching using activities or games
As always I’ve created these beginning sounds worksheets as a free printable because as parents (and homeschoolers) we already have SO many expenses so it’s always nice when you can get something for free. 🙂
How To Use These Beginning Sounds Worksheets
The first 3 worksheets in this pack are a simple and fun way to teach beginning sounds.
Look at the picture with your child. Ask them to tell you what it is. Ask them “What’s the first sound?”
Then give some wrong examples. The kids usually find this hilarious!
So for “cat” you say, “Is it L, so lat?” “No that doesn’t sound right, hmm what could it be?”
Give them a chance to give their answer. If they are struggling, you could give them the answer. Do these with a few so they can get the hang of it and you will see how they slowly get to grips with it.
You could even play “the wrong sound”, so what is it not - it’s not gat, it’s not vat, it’s cat!
This can make it a little more playful and fun way to learn.
