Phonemic Awareness Worksheet Generator (Beginning Sounds, Ending Sounds & Syllables)

Print free picture worksheets that train the ear for ages 3–6: circle the beginning or ending sound, clap and count syllables, cut and glue a beginning sound sort, find the two pictures that start the same, or write the first letter. Choose focus letters, 6 to 12 pictures, lowercase or uppercase, and add an answer key.

Letters to focus on (none ticked = any letter · only letters with at least 3 pictures that start with that sound)

Picture-only pages: the child says each name out loud and listens for the sound, so no words are printed. The answer key names every picture. Sounds go by what you hear, not the spelling — cake is a c, ghost is a g, and pictures like fish (sh) or giraffe (j sound) are left out of letter activities. Start with beginning sounds for ages 3–5; ending sounds and syllables suit Kindergarten and Grade 1.
