About this worksheet

N is a hum made with the tongue behind the top teeth and the sound coming out of the nose, nnn, a sound a child can hold on to. Every row on this page shows three pictures, and only one of them has a name that begins with N. Say the three names out loud together, slowly, and let the child decide which one starts with the nnn sound. A child who picks the picture she likes best, or the one with the longest name, is not yet listening to the front of the word, so say only the first sound a few times and let her copy you.

Nest, nail, needle, net and nurse are words most three- and four-year-olds already say. Praise the careful listening, not only the circle, and afterwards look around the house for more things that start with N.

What your child will learn

  • Say the sound the letter N makes
  • Hear the nnn sound at the front of a spoken word
  • Pick a picture by its first sound, not by what it is
  • Name everyday pictures clearly

Head Start ELOF standard: P-LIT 3, RF.K.3.A

Worked example

The row shows a nest and two other pictures. Say the names slowly and stretch the front of each one. Nest starts with the nnn sound of N, so circle it.
