Letter D Cut and Paste Worksheets

Identify pictures whose names begin with the /d/ sound.

Sort uppercase D and lowercase d correctly by case.

Distinguish the letter D from visually similar letters such as g, Q and k.

Have students say each picture's name aloud before gluing it under the dolphin, since the sort is built around the initial /d/ sound rather than spelling.

Introduce the third worksheet's discrimination task (D vs. g, Q, k) after students are comfortable with the capital/lowercase sort, since it adds visually similar distractor letters.

Have scissors and glue ready before starting, since all three worksheets are cut-and-paste sorting tasks rather than write-in practice.

Phonemic awareness — students identify pictures whose names begin with the /d/ sound and paste them under a dolphin.

Letter-case recognition — students sort capital D and lowercase d under separate headers.

Visual letter discrimination — students sort D out from similar-looking letters (g, Q, k) using an 'I am / I am not' sorting frame.

Fine motor practice — all three worksheets require cutting out and pasting pieces into place rather than writing.
