Gentle G Guide

This worksheet explains when the letter “G” makes a soft sound, using words that have the “G” before letters like “i,” “y,” or “e.” Students circle words with a soft “G” sound from a list and write additional examples. By following the phonics rule, they identify soft “G” words such as “gentle” and “genius.” This exercise combines rule-based learning with active word identification.

Learning phonics rules builds students’ ability to predict sounds, which is essential for decoding unfamiliar words. This worksheet helps reinforce language patterns, making it easier for students to grasp pronunciation and spelling rules. By identifying and writing examples, students practice language skills that aid in vocabulary expansion. Activities like this enhance critical thinking as students apply rules to recognize sound variations.
