Lesson Overview
About this worksheet
This worksheet teaches students to hear the last sound in a spoken word and write the letter that makes it. Ending sounds are harder to hear than beginning sounds, so the reference box models holding the final sound out loud.
Section A on page 1 has six pictures and Section B on page 2 has six more. Page 3 is the answer key.
It comes in two editions: a full-color PDF and a low-ink black-and-white PDF for everyday copying, both with the same answer key.
How to Use This Lesson
Read the reference box and hold the last sound of a word together.
Say each Section A picture and write the letter you hear at the end.
Do the same for Section B.
Check the answer key on page 3.
