Ending Sounds Worksheet
- Kindergarten
- CCSS RF.K.2d
A free, printable ending sounds worksheet for kindergarten. Your child matches pictures by last sound, writes last letters and sorts pictures by ending. Answer key included.
What's inside
- Page 1: circle the matching ending sound for 6 pictures, then write the last letter for 6 more.
- Page 2: sort 6 pictures by /g/ or /n/, then draw something that ends with /t/.
- Page 3: answer key.
How to use it
- Teach or review the rule first with the ending sounds lesson. It takes about 10 minutes.
- Read the directions for each part out loud. Early readers can point while you read.
- Check Part A together before your child goes on, so any confusion gets fixed early.
- Use the answer key on the last page.
Prints on US Letter paper (8.5 × 11 in). No sign-up needed.
Tips for doing it together
- Keep it short. One page a day is plenty for most young children, and two short sessions beat one long one.
- Let your child read each sentence out loud before answering. Many mistakes get caught by ear.
- Mark a mistake with a small dot instead of an X, and let your child find and fix it. That's where the learning happens.
What your child is practicing
The ending sound is the last sound in a word, and it's harder to hear than the first. The kindergarten standard asks kids to pick out first, middle and last sounds. Stretch the end of each word as you say it.
Practice online
After the worksheet, the 10-question ending sounds quiz gives instant feedback and reads each question aloud. For a game, try Feed Monty.
