About this resource
Description
Hearing the first sound in a word is one of the first big steps toward reading and spelling. This letter roll beginning sounds activity turns that skill into a dice game for kindergarten and 1st grade students. Children roll a letter die, say the letter and its sound, and then hunt for a picture card that starts with the same sound.
The pack has two printable letter dice, one with b, c, d, f, g and h and one with m, n, p, r, s and t, plus 24 bright picture cards, two for every letter on the dice. Each picture sits on a big red die face. When a child finds a match, they keep the card and write the letter and the word on the Score Sheet. When the cards are gone, the player with the most cards wins. A kindergarten practice worksheet then asks students to fill in the bubble for the first sound of eight new pictures.
What’s Included
- A colorful cover and a How to Use page
- Two printable letter dice to cut, fold and tape
- 24 picture cards on four cut sheets
- A Score Sheet for each player
- A kindergarten practice worksheet
- Answer keys for the picture cards and the practice page
Why This Beginning Consonants Game Helps Kids
First, saying a letter sound and then searching for a matching picture links the letter, the sound and the word, which is the heart of phonics. Second, writing the picture word on the Score Sheet gives early spelling practice with real words. Third, rolling dice and racing to collect cards keeps children excited to practice the same twelve consonant sounds again and again.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use the letter roll beginning sounds activity at a literacy center, in a small group, or at home with family members. Start with just one die to practice six sounds, then add the second die. Children can also sort all of the cards into twelve letter piles. This kindergarten beginning sounds activity works well as a quick review before a phonics lesson, too.
