Looking At Each Worksheet
All About K
An inviting anchor page that introduces uppercase and lowercase K with fun images like kites, kangaroos, and keys. It works like a spotlight on the letter's shape, sound, and meaning. Great for morning routines or letter-of-the-week activities. Bonus idea: Ask each child to bring a K object from home to "add to the exhibit."
Beginning Sounds
Children practice identifying and circling objects that begin with /k/-like "kite" vs. "apple." It jumpstarts phonemic awareness in a colorful way. Bonus idea: Turn it into a quick matching relay: name the object, then run to grab a real or felt counterpart.
Circle and Color K
Kids find and color all the uppercase and lowercase K's hidden in a jumble. It's like a hidden-letter treasure hunt! Bonus idea: Use dot stickers or glitter glue to make each found K shine.
Color the K Objects
Color pictures that all start with K-like "kangaroo," "kettle," or "kite." It links phonics and visual memory in a relaxing art moment. Bonus idea: Encourage children to share a sentence about the object they colored.
Cut-and-Paste Fun
A kinesthetic sheet where children cut out letters or K-objects and paste them in the right spot. It reinforces form, match, and placement all at once. Bonus idea: Let kids decorate their cut-outs with tissue paper or sparkles afterward.
K Letter Coloring
Color a big uppercase and lowercase K-perfect for tracing stroke shape through repetition and control. Bonus idea: Try using two colors: one for uppercase and another for lowercase to subtly reinforce case differences.
K Letter Search
Scan through text or a picture page to locate every K hiding within-like a detective mission! It sharpens scanning and recognition. Bonus idea: Give learners magnifying glasses to make the hunt extra adventurous.
K Match-Up
Match uppercase K to lowercase k and to corresponding pictures (kite, king, key). Learning through pairing strengthens recognition. Bonus idea: Turn it into a memory game with cards-you flip and match!
K Trace and Draw
Trace uppercase and lowercase K, then draw something that starts with K. A perfect blend of handwriting and creative expression. Bonus idea: Have each child pronounce "K is for..." followed by their drawing as a mini-presentation.
Kangaroo Match
Match K (upper/lower) with a kangaroo image-or trace a kangaroo-shaped K! This playful link reinforces the sound with memorable imagery. Bonus idea: Kids can "hop" in place each time they trace a K or say "Kangaroo!"
Kettle Spotting
Circle kettles or kettle pictures that start with K-great for phonics in a themed layout. Bonus idea: Pretend to pour "tea" from a kettle and say K-words ("kettle," "kitchen," "kind") as you go.
Kite and Knife
Features both "kite" and "knife" pictures to highlight the hard K sound (with/without the silent K). A great phonics teaching moment. Bonus idea: Talk briefly about the silent K in "knife"-a nice sneak phonics lesson.
Kite Tracing
Trace the letter K along paths drawn like a kite's tail-fun motor-pattern practice disguised as play. Bonus idea: Let children make paper kites and trace with a finger before gluing the worksheet down.
Trace and Color
Trace the letters K/k, then color in K-themed images like "key" or "king." Multi-step learning meets fine motor and phonics. Bonus idea: Paste craft jewels onto a "king's crown" after coloring to add sparkle.
