Letter Recognition Worksheet: Fill in the Beginning Letter!
This worksheet gives children ages 3-5 practice identifying the beginning sound of pictured words, writing the missing letter to complete each one, and then specifically finding words that start with the letter 'W'. Focusing on one target letter in the second half of the worksheet adds a layer of selective attention, asking children to recognize a specific letter among several options rather than just filling in blanks.
