Here is a new set of Letter Sounds Cards I am adding to the Literacy Printables page.
I made these cards for those children in my class who are interested in learning letter sounds, but were overwhelmed by the Snowman Letter Sounds Game (on the Winter Theme page). I noticed these children really want to learn letter sounds, but they struggled unless I pointed out two pictures on the snowman cards. They were then able to choose between the two pictures.
I am using these cards this way: The children place a translucent, colored bingo chip on the pictures that begin with the letter on each card. When they are finished, they turn each card over, one at a time, for self-checking. On the back of each card, I glued the clipart that shows the correct answer (e.g. on the back of the Zz card, I glued the zebra picture).
I plan to make more of these sets when I have time. Perhaps a set with 3 pictures instead of 2.
Please Note: This set has consonants only, and does not include the letter Xx.

Karen, I used these today with great success. Thanks for creating them!
So glad I found your site. Thank you for the work you put in on these cards. Tomorrow morning, these cards are getting printed off for the two preschoolers I have in my care at this time. They have the names down and can write, but the sounds have been harder in coming. Love the idea of one is and one isn’t. That will help them focus and reinforce in a positive manner.
Your website is full of refreshing ideas to use with pre-schoolers. As classroom superviosr of the center I will require teachers to visit and print from this site. This will help us take our center to the next academic level and I am sure parents will notice and appreciate our efforts. Can’t wait to share my findings with our Sr. Director! Keep those ideas coming!
