Free Pre-K Phonics Activities

This resource was created in order to help Speech Language Pathologists target initial phonemes at the word level.

The h-insertion trick can be an extremely helpful strategy to use when children are stuck at the isolation level of a sound. By producing /h/ after the initial sound, the child continues their air flow, making it easier to produce the following vowel. This helps them to eliminate the prior habit of producing the incorrect sound.

Find the Full H-Insertion Resource Here!

If you haven't tried /h/-insertion, download this FREEBIE and see it work it's magic!

H-Insertion can help target the following:

• Phonological Processes: prevocalic voicing, gliding, backing, fronting, stopping, deaffrication, labialization, denasalization, excessive nasal emissions, initial consonant deletion
• Motor planning and sound transitions for children with Childhood Apraxia of Speech
• Sound production for children with Dysarthria or weak articulatory musculature
• Myofunctional disorders including frontal lisp, lateral lisp, limited lip rounding
• Articulation disorders to target initial /b/, initial /k/, initial /d/, initial /f/, initial /g/, initial "j", initial /l/, initial /m/, initial /n/, initial /p/, initial /r/, initial /s/, initial /t/, initial /v/, initial /w/, initial "y", initial /z/

These are basic 2 and 3 phoneme Elkonin boxes. I say a word and the students practice saying the sounds in the word while the circles drop down into the box. You could also say the sounds and have the students guess the word. Sometimes we think of what letter makes the sound and write it in the box. Circles drop on click into the box.

This file is a free sampler of some of my letter sound fluency activities. This will be a growing file, as I will add more free files as I create more letter sound fluency activities.

Right now this file contains:

**Letter Sound Fluency Strips**

This low prep activity gives students a quick and engaging way to practice and improve their letter sound fluency. Students point to colorful pictures one at a time as they say the letter sounds on them. They can use the same strips repeatedly and work to increase their speed.

You can find more activities just like this in my Letter Sound Fluency BUNDLE.

**Letter Sound Fluency Tear Off Strips**

These low prep tear off strips bring a fun, active element to practicing letter sound fluency. My small group intervention students beg for this activity!

Display the colorful sheets of tear off strips around the room. Students tear off one strip at a time and practice the row of 10 letter sounds 3 times to increase fluency. Then they can read their strip for the teacher or a classmate before choosing another sheet to tear from.

You can find more activities just like this here.

This packet contains clip cards for the ACK word family. These clip cards are a great fine motor literacy center or as a Kindergarten phonics center. There are 3 different card types for each picture with several different representation of the words.

Types of Clip Cards

• The first set of cards have the picture with the beginning sound or blend for the at word and students must clip the correct word family ending to complete the word. For example, the card will have a picture of a hat with h _ _ under the picture. The choices the student will choose from will be like at, ag or am.
• The second set of cards have the picture with no word and the student must pick the correct word from a choice of 3 different words with the same beginning sound but with different ending word families. For example, students will see a picture of a hat and must choose the correct answer from these choices: hat, ham or han.
• The third set of cards have the picture with no word and the student must pick the correct word from a choice of 3 different words with the same beginning and ending sound. Only the vowel is different. For example, students will see a picture of a hat and much choose the correct answer from these choices: hat, hit, or hot.
