About this worksheet
A free printable beginning sounds path for preschool: a grid of 25 pictures between a bee and a flower. Kids say each name and color the box of every picture that starts with /b/ (ball, bus, banana, boat and more); the colored boxes make a path from start to finish. Answer key on page 2. It is made for pre-K, roughly ages 4 to 5: big letters, a picture clue and lots of coloring. Color the start and finish arrows in green and red.
Tips for using it
- Trace the correct path with a highlighter once you solve it.
- Say the first sound slowly and a little longer: sss-un.
- Avoid adding 'uh' to sounds: say /b/, not 'buh', so blending is easier later.
- Start with sounds that are easy to stretch, like m, s and f.
