Phonics Alphabet Worksheets Animals Included in this packet is a worksheet for each letter of the alphabet using an animal theme. Be aware that although all the ‘main’ images are animals there aren’t enough animals for all the circle activities for every letter, so there are couple of other images that are unrelated to animals! Can’t be helped, X is a hard letter! Students can write their name at the top and then each worksheet has: Trace the letter activity (caps and lower) Circle the picture beginning with the letter activity Colour in the correct letter activity The designs look lovely printed in colour but will print fine in gray scale if you are producing lots of them for a class. You could use these as part of a wider animal topic or as a morning work activity. These are also great for home school students! I hope you enjoy this product and please review positively if you do! :)
