If you’re looking for a fun way to help your kindergarten or preschool students practice beginning sounds, these free construction beginning sounds clip cards are the perfect low-prep literacy activity. With bright images and an engaging construction theme, students will be excited to practice phonemic awareness while building fine motor skills.
Why Beginning Sounds Clip Cards?
Clip cards are a hands-on way for students to connect letters with their sounds. Students look at the picture, identify the beginning sound, and then use a clothespin or marker to clip or cover the correct letter. Not only does this reinforce early phonics skills, but it also strengthens hand muscles for writing.
