This fun and free printable worksheet for children in preschool and Kindergarten is all about the letter B! Children will practice tracing the upper case and lower case letter, identify pictures beginning with the sound /b/, and practice coloring in those pictures.
Teaching the Letter B
Letter B is one of our favorite letters to teach! The letter B is for so many things: baby, ball, and bike, to name a few. But it’s also for one of our favorite foods: BACON!
And because most kids love bacon too, this free worksheet is great for introducing young learners to the letter b and the sound it makes.
Children begin making the /b/ sound as early as six months old when they babble! So by the time they enter preschool or kindergarten, they’re more than ready to learn more.
Explicitly teaching the letter b as we teach letters and sounds will help young learners connect the phoneme /b/ with the grapheme b.
