Picture Initial Hunt

A worksheet to discover the first letter of your own name by playing with pictures.

The child's big initial sits in the middle of the page. Around it are drawings: some start with that letter, others don't. The child circles every picture that starts like their name.

Why it helps

  • Builds phonological awareness: hearing the first sound of a word
  • Connects the child's name, the letter and everyday vocabulary
  • Trains observation and visual discrimination
  • Suits middle and upper kindergarten: letter recognition first, then sound

How it works

  • A sheet automatically generated for every student in your class, from their first name
  • Varied, colorful drawings with the word written underneath
  • Carefully chosen distractors so children really have to listen to the sound
  • A4, print-ready, with Name / First name / Date fields

Great for independent workshops, morning routines or start-of-year assessments.
