Phonics Ending Sounds

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a phonics exercise that focuses on ending sounds in words. It presents a series of images, each representing a word with the initial and final letters provided, and a blank space for the missing ending sound. The students’ task is to identify each picture and fill in the blank with the correct ending sound to complete the word. For example, next to the picture of a pig, the letters “p” and “__g” are given, requiring the student to determine the missing letter is “i” to complete the word “pig.”

The worksheet is designed to teach students how to recognize and write the ending sounds of words, which is crucial for developing reading and spelling skills. It encourages phonemic awareness by prompting students to focus on the sounds that conclude words. This skill is important for understanding that words are made up of different sounds that can be represented by letters. The “How Did You Do?” section at the bottom of the page provides a means for students to self-assess their performance and reflect on their learning.
