Kindergarten Reading & Writing · World 5: Letter Sound Hive · Level 34
Which Letter Starts It?
Choose the letter for a picture's first sound.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 34
- Now let's use letter sounds to write! Say the word, listen for the first sound, and pick the letter that makes it.
- Sun. The first sound is /s/. S makes /s/, so sun starts with S!
- Cat starts with /k/. C makes /k/, so cat starts with C. Kite starts with /k/ too, but we write it with K. Some words just use K.
- Try it with a grown-up! Draw a picture, and write the first letter of its name next to it.
Georgia's K-12 English Language Arts Standards:
- K.F.P.1.a — Identify and produce basic one-to-one phoneme-grapheme correspondences for the most frequently used sound for each consonant.
- K.F.P.3.a — Use knowledge of letter/sound correspondences to connect letters (graphemes) to sounds (phonemes) to encode simple one-syllable words, including high-frequency words (VC, CV, CVC).
