About this worksheet

Seven rows of four pictures. In each row two pictures start with the same sound (bat and bus, moon and mop, sock and six and so on); kids say all four names and circle the matching pair. It suits kindergarten, about ages 5 to 6, with large print and short, decodable words.

Tips for using 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.
