 Phonics worksheet

A worksheet dealing with phonetics and some of the major difficulties my students usually have (maybe the same as yours). There are 7 exercises to differentiate vowel and consonant sounds, to differentiate z and s sounds an three exercises with the ending “ed” sound of regular verbs in the past. After the students do the exercises, they’ll find the transcriptions on the second page for auto-correction. The teacher may want to check it orally after their own correction. The worksheet is completely editable / correctable to better fit your needs or your students’ vocabulary and level. Hope it’s useful. Thanks for downloading and have a nice day!

This ESL worksheet gives students extra practice in choosing between WILL or BE GOING TO when talking about future plans in English. We use BE GOING TO when talking about a plan that has been scheduled (ex: We are going to go to the park next Friday). We use WILL for decisions IN THE MOMENT (That sounds fun, I will go with you), THINGS WE HOPE OR THINK WILL HAPPEN (I think he will come to the party/He will probably come to the party), or THINGS THAT ALWAYS HAPPEN (The Sun will come out tomorrow. Christmas will be on December 25th, etc.).



This ESL printable is not meant to teach students the rules, they will not be successful if you have not already worked on this with them. It is meant to be extra practice to improve their grammar skills.

Phionics-beginning sound with "The very hungry caterpillar"

My own remake of the vowels sounds - inspired by jolly phonics



Read the words and point to the pictures emphasizing the vowels sounds a/e/i/u/o.



The children look at the picture box. Say the word box ask the children to listen out or the /o/ sound.

Point out that in the line of short vowels above the picture the /o/ has been circled.



The children look at the rest of the pictures and say the words for them circling the short vowel above. Also write down the words under neath the pictures. The last picture has 2 vowel sounds see if your children can pick them up!



Finally a word search containing 4 of each vowel sound to find.

Short Vowels a/e/i/o/u  RE-UPLOADED

Good phonetics practice.  This is a story that has a lot of difficult sounds in it for many learners but especially Korean learners.  It can be used many ways, as a listening activity, running dictation, speaking activity.  Works with tricky words like day/they, rock/lock and many more.  My favorite way to use it is with as a running dictation after a lesson on many of the difficult sounds involved in the story.
