Elementary School Phonics Homework

5 worksheets in which children need to look at a picture and think about what the short vowel sound would be in the middle of that word, they then need to color the correct letter.

Why do you need this?

Understanding short vowel sounds is fundamental to strong literacy skills, it lays the foundation for their early literacy skills and paves the way for successful reading and spelling. These worksheets give students focused practice isolating vowel sounds in simple CVC words. The ability to recognize and differentiate between short vowel sounds helps children sound out words, enabling them to read new and unfamiliar words with accuracy.

How and when might you use this?

Each page displays 6 pictures along with a choice of 3 different vowel sounds, children have to work out what CVC word the picture is representing and then color in the correct middle vowel sound for that word. For example, seeing a picture of a pig would cue coloring the "i" as the middle vowel sound in "pig".

These worksheets can be used in a variety of ways:

· During small group phonics sessions

· Independent work stations or literacy centers

· Homework practice

· Guided reading groups

· Morning work

· Reading interventions for children who need additional support

· Whole class instruction

Barry's Great Escape is a silly fiction passage with a focus on reading and identifying schwa sounds. Each schwa word is shown below the passage with the vowel that makes the sound. Five multiple-choice questions are available on the second page, along with an open-ended writing.

6 worksheets in which children need to circle the picture that begins with a given letter.

Why do you need this?

Recognizing beginning sounds lays the groundwork for reading skills. These worksheets give students practice isolating and identifying initial phonemes through interactive activities.

Connecting sounds to letters and pictures reinforces phonetic awareness. With pictures of things like food, animals, and vehicles, children apply knowledge to familiar vocabulary.

How and when might you use this?

Each box focuses on a target starting sound, with a bold letter at the top for reference. Students look at 4 different illustrations and circle any pictures that start with that letter's sound. For example, when the target is "B", learners will circle the banana. This simple yet effective exercise serves as a foundational step in phonics instruction.

Use them for individual practice or small group phonics instruction.
