Beginning Sounds Bingo
30 different bingo cards using beginning sounds.
Print out the bingo and sound cards and laminate them.
Pull the sound cards out and have students put a marker over the picture that starts with that sound if they have it on their card. Your students can decide if they need to find three pictures vertically or horizontally to win.
There is a blank card provided for you to add any pictures of your own.

Hi, this game should really be entitled “beginning blends” as it is not using single sounds which is the impression the title gives. Cheers,

Hi,
Do you have a resource that is the same as this, but for beginning single sounds, not blends and digraphs?
Thanks.

Hi there Jennifer,
This bingo game focuses on the beginning letter (which could also be used as the beginning sound). Do you think it might be what you are looking for?
