Pre-K Reading: Rhyme Listen and Point

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: hearing rhyming words in a read-aloud or rhyme

1

Listen: cat, hat. Do they rhyme? Circle yes.

2

Listen: sun, fish. Do they rhyme? Circle no.

3

Point to the picture for log that rhymes with frog.

4

Say a word that rhymes with bee.

5

Listen to one rhyme in a book. Point when you hear two words that rhyme.

6

Draw two things whose names rhyme and tell an adult.

Grown-up guide
  1. Say each pair naturally first; repeat slowly only if the child needs another listen.
  2. Use real, familiar words and picture support rather than asking for spelling.
  3. Keep the goal on listening for the ending sound, not producing many rhymes.
