Kindergarten Phonics Worksheet
Kindergarten phonics worksheets are great to teach kids which sound goes with which letter or vowel, and to reinforce their knowledge of speech and writing.
This also works as a preface to writing and saying more elaborated sentences.
We’ve created two different kinds of kindergarten phonics worksheet. The first one allows kids to identify and understand the starting letter of a word, i.e. B is the starting letter of a ball.
The second type allows kids the different vowels inside the words, to complement their understanding of the vowels and how to create words with them.
This is a very important piece of knowledge kids can grasp quickly while they advance their way through learning how to connect words to letters.
How to use these letter worksheets?
These worksheets are very easy to use because they’re meant to be simple. All you have to do is explain to them how phonics works, show them how to do the first exercise, and they’ll be on their way.
- In the first one, they have to shade the letters that start each word.
- In the second one, they just have to fill in the missing letters.
And that’s it. You must encourage creativity allowing them to use colored pencils and printing the worksheets in color.
