Initial Sounds Cut and Stick Phonics EYFS

A fun, practical initial sounds phonics activity designed to help Nursery and Reception children develop letter recognition, initial sound awareness, letter formation and fine motor skills.

Children identify each picture, listen for its initial sound, then cut out and stick the picture underneath the matching letter. Each activity also provides an opportunity to practise letter formation by tracing over the letters at the top of the page.

The resource contains 7 activity pages covering single-letter sounds and broadly following the progression of Letters and Sounds, without digraphs. Sounds include s, a, t, p, i, n, m, d, g, o, c, k, e, u, r, h, b, f, l, j, v, x, y and z.
