Whether this is your students’ first time in a classroom or they are returning for another year before heading off to kindergarten, this is a fun and important week. These back to school letter sound bus will be a great addition to your plans at the beginning of the school year. 

This Letter sound bus activity is a super cute back to school themed resource! It makes an excellent literacy center activity for preschool or kindergarten and the super cute clipart helps make the learning activity engaging so children want to practice learning their alphabet letters!

Learning Alphabet Sounds
This back to school letter sound bus activity is such a fun way for students to work on phonemic awareness. There are 26 alphabet school buses to print. Each bus from A to Z contains a clipart of an image.  with the same beginning sound as the letter on the bus. After using this first day of school activity for learning alphabet sounds, children can match the lowercase letter tires to the correct phonics buses. 

Preparation for the activity
Simply print out the bus letter cards on regular copy paper or cardstock to be more durable. You could also print and laminate to use repeatedly over an amount of time. You can use these all year as you introduce each letter, and they can also be used as an alphabet review activity.

How to use these preschool Letter Sound Bus?
Students will choose a school bus,  say the name of the picture first on the bus and the beginning sound of the picture and then matching it to the school bus with the correct letter by writing the letter or use the letter flashcard or magnet alphabet or wooden letter to the object with its beginning sound.

After matching up all, use the recording sheet to write down the letters while practicing beginning sound skills.
