Sorting Vowels and Consonants
English Language Arts (ELA) - Kindergarten
Hands-On Vowel and Consonant Activities for Kindergarten
Sorting Vowels and Consonants
Goal
In the previous exercise, we introduced the concept of vowels and consonants. In this exercise, we want to encourage the students to practice tracing all letters and sorting them into vowels and consonants. Remember that "a, e, i, o, u" are the vowel sounds, and "y" can function as both a vowel and consonant.
