Blend Words Matching Worksheet for Preschoolers

Children ages 4-5 practice reading consonant blend words — words that start with two consonant sounds blended together, like 'bl' or 'st' — and connecting them to the correct picture through a cut-and-paste matching activity. Blends are a step up in difficulty from single beginning sounds, since children must hear and produce two consonant sounds smoothly together, an important milestone on the way to more advanced phonics.

How to use this worksheet

Read each blend word aloud together, emphasizing the two consonant sounds at the start of the word. Look at the picture choices and ask your child which one matches the word they just read. Have your child cut out the correct picture and glue it into the box next to the matching word, then read the word one more time together while pointing at the pasted picture to reinforce the connection.

Materials needed

  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Glue

Extension activities

  • Have the child write the blend words independently on a separate sheet of paper.
  • Encourage the child to use each blend word in a simple spoken sentence.
  • Find other objects in the room whose names start with the same blend, like 'block' or 'blue' for the 'bl' blend.
  • Sort a set of picture cards by their beginning blend sound into small piles.
