Missing Sounds

In this activity, students complete words by filling in the missing sounds indicated by slashes. Pictures, like soup or feet, provide clues to the target words. This exercise combines sound identification and problem-solving, as students must figure out which sounds are missing. The structured boxes guide them to organize their answers and maintain focus.

Filling in missing sounds develops auditory discrimination and phonemic awareness, helping students become more fluent readers and spellers. By solving these puzzles, students improve their problem-solving skills and ability to recognize sound patterns. It also encourages active listening and careful analysis, both critical for literacy development. This activity is great for reinforcing phonics concepts in a fun, interactive way.
