SN Blend Find and Colour Phonics Worksheet to Develop Phonemic

About This Product

This SN fun, Find and Color worksheet for initial blends is excellent for acquainting children orally with initial consonant blends and helping them develop the necessary phonemic awareness in preparation for more advanced blending work, involving four phonemes.

What is included in the pack?

One PDF sheet for the SN blend.

What do the worksheets involve?

Pupils are instructed to combine the two letters on each worksheet and then look for objects that start with that consonant blend. Then, these items ought to be coloured, leaving the others uncoloured.

Children can easily work on the sheets unaided once they have been instructed, although, with those children with special needs, it is strongly suggested that an adult works with the child for maximum benefit.

How to use

The introduction of the concept of initial blends needs to be done thoroughly. When I work with children, especially those with a special need, I first like to teach children to blend two consonant letters. Then I work on developing the children's phonemic awareness: that being the ability to hear two consonant letters blended at the beginning of a word, easily.

This is difficult for some pupils and takes a lot of practice. These worksheets can assist by first encouraging students to blend the two consonant letters and then by helping them to hear the blend at the start of a word. As often as you can, practice blending the letters in each initial blend and encourage the students to follow suit. I find that modelling is key at this stage.

Who are the initial blends Find and colour worksheets for?

Young learners

Those with a special need

Due to their non-babyish nature, they can be successfully used with older ESL/EFL pupils.

Answer keys:

The answer key is included on the sheet, in small print.
