Circle the Correct Letter: Fun Phonics Worksheet for Kids

This phonics worksheet helps children ages 4-5 connect a picture's beginning sound to its matching letter, a key decoding skill on the path to independent reading. Circling the correct letter from a small set of choices also builds visual discrimination, since children must tell similar-looking letters apart under a bit of time pressure.

How to use this worksheet

Look at the first picture together and say its name slowly, stretching out the very first sound. Have your child repeat the sound and think about which letter makes it. Show them the row of letter choices next to the picture and ask them to circle the one that matches the beginning sound. Continue through the remaining pictures, letting your child work more independently as their confidence grows, and check each answer together at the end.
