  • Beginning sounds Say the picture's name out loud. Listen to the sound it starts with, and write the letter that makes that sound.
  • Dolch pre-primer sight words The pre-primer words are your first forty sight words: little words like the, my, and jump that show up in almost every book you'll ever open.
  • Missing letters The letters always come in the same order. Say the letters you can see, and the missing one is the next letter you say.
  • Picture words Say the picture's name. Then trace the word beside it, starting at the top of each letter.
  • Rhyming pictures Say both picture names. Words that rhyme end with the same sound. Write both words.
  • Uppercase and lowercase letters Every letter has a capital and a small letter. They have the same name and make the same sound.
