A set of five FREE Phonics Onset and Rime Worksheets. Designed for ESL, Kindergarten and Primary classrooms.

Students have to look for words and read the code to decide what colour to write and colour the animals . I have included five different versions that include short and long vowels, and R controlled vowels for teachers to use and of course on this page are free.

What is included

These worksheets are designed to help students either in pairs or individually practice speaking. This is useful as it can be a self directed activity, and will keep them interested.

Why teach phonics

Teaching Phonics this skill is the next step from single sound recognition and these tasks help students get skilled in blending the sounds together to make new words. there are five here, and i am in the process of making another set as well

If you need to change the words or images then i will put an editable version in the store, there are a few different phonic and vocabulary worksheets and activities in there. check the links at the bottom if you are interested.

Phonics are a increasingly popular skills for students to learn and these activities and other phonics worksheets, games and apps will go some way to addressing those needs for students.
