Beginning Sounds Phonics Worksheets (a–f)
How the sounds work (Listen to the first sound): Say the word slowly, stretching the start: b… ball. The first sound you hear tells you the first letter: ball starts with b. Words that start with the same sound start alike: ball, bus, bat. (c and k can make the same sound: cat, kite.)
