“Beginning Sound” worksheet is designed to build foundational phonics and spelling skills for early learners through the use of colorful visuals and fun images. It encourages students to identify the initial letter sound of each illustrated word and write the correct letter into the blank space.

Each image—ranging from animals like cat, cow, fox, and bat to objects like net and dog—provides a meaningful context for sound-letter correspondence. By engaging with the worksheet, students practice phonemic awareness (the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual sounds in spoken words), which is essential for early reading success.

Learning Benefits:

Builds phonics awareness by connecting sounds to letters.
Reinforces spelling of common CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words.
Strengthens visual discrimination and vocabulary through image cues.
Improves fine motor skills with handwriting practice in letter boxes.

This worksheet is ideal for use in literacy centers, small group instruction, or take-home practice. Teachers can extend the activity by having children say the words aloud, clap syllables, or sort words by beginning sounds. It can also be used alongside alphabet books, flashcards, or phonics songs for multisensory learning.

How to Use:

Say the name of the image aloud.
Emphasize the beginning sound (e.g., “c-c-cat”).
Have the child identify the starting letter.
Write the correct letter in the blank box to complete the word.

This worksheet makes phonics fun while reinforcing vital reading-readiness skills.
