Write The Ending Consonant Sound Worksheet With Answer

Description

Fun worksheet for preschool and kindergarten. Kids practice writing the ending consonant sound for words. Simple instructions guide them and boost confidence in sound recognition. Interactive and educational.

The Spelling Stumble: Why Ending Sounds Are Tricky

Hear the /k/ in “book” and /g/ in “dog”. Feel how your voice vibrates for /g/ but not for /k/. This tiny difference is a big spelling challenge for young writers.

Spelling confidence is built or broken at this stage. This worksheet gives structured practice to build confidence.

Focused practice on ending sounds helps your child:

• Improve Phonemic Awareness: Identify the last sound in a word.
• Develop Spelling Accuracy: Learn letter-sound matches like t/d, p/b, k/g.
• Build Writing Fluency: Automatic spelling frees mental energy for ideas.
• Prepare for Words with Blends: Master single endings before blends like ‘-nd’, ‘-lk’, ‘-mp’.

How to Use This Worksheet

Act as a coach to develop their “writer’s ear”.

Step 2: Say, Stretch, and Listen

Teach this process for each word:

1. SAY the word normally, e.g., “Dog.”
2. STRETCH it, emphasizing the ending: “D-o-g-g-g-g-g.”
3. Listen: Is it /g/ (buzzing) or /k/ (quiet)? Multi-sensory practice helps.

Example: “Bag” → stretch “b-a-g-g-g-g”. Feel the throat buzz? That signals /g/, so write ‘g’.

Step 4: Make It Multi-Sensory

• Tactile: Place hand on throat to feel vibration for /g/, /d/, /b/ vs. no vibration for /k/, /t/, /p/.
• Kinesthetic: Tap a finger for each sound to catch the final sound.

Ending sounds don’t have to be frustrating. This worksheet gives targeted practice and strategies to master them.
