Beginning Sounds Scene Worksheets

Introduce beginning sounds in a fun, hands-on way with these Beginning Sounds Scene worksheets. Each page blends phonics with coloring, cutting, and gluing so children actively practice letter recognition and phonemic awareness. Students color a simple scene, then cut and paste picture cues that begin with the focus letter to complete the activity.

🖍️ How to Use the Beginning Sounds Scene Worksheets

1. Introduce the letter sound. Model the focus letter and say each picture name slowly, stretching the beginning sound.

3. Cut out the pictures. Have students name each image before cutting to reinforce the sound.
4. Glue the pictures into the scene. Place and paste to create a finished beginning-sound scene.
5. Extend the activity. Label the pictures, brainstorm other words with the same initial sound, or retell the completed scene aloud.
