Say My Sound: Beginning Letter Sounds Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Look at the first picture together and say its name slowly and clearly, stretching out the beginning sound so your child can hear it distinctly. Read each letter option aloud, asking your child which one makes the same sound as the beginning of the picture's name. Have your child circle the correct letter, then say the whole word once more to double-check it sounds right. Continue through each picture on the page, encouraging your child to say each word slowly before choosing a letter.
