The Alphabet About the words The images in this worksheet were prepared as a set representing words with single syllables. The idea setting out was that they should be easy and fun for students to say and should be everyday terms that get used frequently. There are two sets of cards, one, a set of word cards, the other a set of letter cards. There are two extra cards in each set for the letters C and X. I thought ax, might be a bit uncommon and wanted to have an alternate for the letter C as the pro- nunciation is sometimes a bit fuzzy. (Cake has the tricky usage of both C and K making the same sound.) Who is this sheet for? These cards are for beginner students who have little familiarity with English. This may mean children or adult learners who are just starting out in English. The single syllables make the terms easy to pronounce and since they are common words they should be easy for students to use again and again. Using the worksheet There are countless ways to use cards in classes. Games of memory, matching games, and games where kids run to the card or throw the card into a hat for a point. As long as you are active and fun and the kids are enjoying themselves you’re going to have a great time and they are too. Make sure you and your students say the words again and again and speak, make sentences so everyone can hear and say the sentences in context. Note: Kids have a way of destroying cards they get hold of, so after printing the cards you might want to laminate them and remember to round off the edges so no one gets a sharp card in the eye. If you do it well enough this opens up the usage of the cards for a few good games where you can flick or flip the cards to be more active. Credit All images created by hand, by Mike Kloran.

TheAlphabetAbout the words The images in this worksheet were
prepared as a set representing words with single syllables. The
idea setting out was that they should be easy and fun for students
to say and should be everyday terms that get used frequently.
There are two sets of cards, one, a set of word cards, the other
a set of letter cards. There are two extra cards in each set for
the letters C and X. I thought ax, might be a bit uncommon and
wanted to have an alternate for the letter C as the pro-nunciation
is sometimes a bit fuzzy. (Cake has the tricky usage of both C and
K making the same sound.)
Who is this sheet for? These cards are for beginner students who
have little familiarity with English. This may mean children or
adult learners who are just starting out in English. The single
syllables make the terms easy to pronounce and since they are
common words they should be easy for students to use again and
again.
Using the worksheetThere are countless ways to use cards in
classes. Games of memory, matching games, and games where kids run
to the card or throw the card into a hat for a point. As long as
you are active and fun and the kids are enjoying themselves youre
going to have a great time and they are too. Make sure you and your
students say the words again and again and speak, make sentences so
everyone can hear and say the sentences in context.
Note: Kids have a way of destroying cards they get hold of, so
after printing the cards you might want to laminate them and
remember to round off the edges so no one gets a sharp card in the
eye. If you do it well enough this opens up the usage of the cards
for a few good games where you can flick or flip the cards to be
more active.
