Getting Apple Initial Sound Match-Up Ready:

Print the match-ups (Color or Black & White), laminate and cut using a paper trimmer.  Gather all of the pieces and place in a plastic container. I love using plastic pencil cases to store centers like these. It keeps everything in one place and does not take up a ton of space.

This obviously doesn’t take a ton of time to put together and makes a wonderful activity to help your kids have fun and learn at the same time.

Doing Apple Initial Sound Match-Up

Students will start the activity by choosing a barrel with a letter on it. My daughter chose the apple barrel with the letter “S”.

Engage your early learners in hands-on literacy FUN when you implement this apple initial sound match up! Perfect for introducing or reviewing in your PreK, Kindergarten, or First Grade classroom.

Students will then sort through all of the apples with pictures looking for the ones that start with the letter “S”.

Each apple barrel has six apples with a visual. Once the apple barrel has all six apples representing the corresponding letter, they can move on to a new letter and start again.

This hands-on apple initial sound match up is the PERFECT addition to your early literacy center! Complete your Fall, Apple, or Johnny Appleseed learning theme.

Another way this could be completed is to have all of the apple barrels laid out on a table or even the floor. Students will then sort through all of the apple pieces and place each one at the correct apple barrels.

This apple initial sound match up is just what you need in your early literacy center! Perfect for PreK, Kindergarten, or First Grade to engage your early learners in alphabet fun.

If you have younger (or struggling) students that would be overwhelmed by the number of matching pieces in this activity, scale it back. Provide them with only a few of the letters. Once they master those, you can slowly add in more.
