Cut and Paste Xs

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a cut-and-paste activity centered on words that start with the letter “X.” It features images at the top, each representing a word that begins with “X,” and corresponding blank boxes where the correct word needs to be pasted. At the bottom of the page, there are words printed next to images: “Xylophone,” “Xerus,” “Xmas,” and “X-ray,” each in its own dotted box, indicating they are to be cut out. The students must match the images with the words, cut out the words, and paste them into the correct boxes to complete the task.

The worksheet is designed to help students associate the letter “X” with the sounds it makes at the beginning of words. By cutting and pasting, the activity also aims to improve fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. The task of matching images with words promotes vocabulary building and reinforces the concept of initial sounds in words. Additionally, this interactive exercise encourages the development of cognitive skills like sorting and categorization.
