About this resource
Cut apart the picture cards and sort them onto “Begins With E” and “Does Not Begin With E” mats. Name each picture before deciding where it belongs, then compare the initial sounds. The two-mat format keeps the target sound distinct from the other picture words.
Curriculum reference — Ontario: Initial sound sorting supports early grapheme-phoneme work; keep Canadian picture names. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
