Color by word family

Who doesn’t love coloring pages? I know they are always a big hit during Quiet Time over here. Recently, I combined a few of my passions and the result was these 78 FREE color by letter coloring pages!

One of my passions, as you might now, is quiet time. Quiet time helps me add a lovely rhythm to our days, gives my little ones time to be independent and recharge, and gives me time each day to be on my own and recharge as well. 

Another passion, as you also might now, is teaching little ones letter recognition. As a literacy specialist I have a very strong opinion on how we should be teaching children their letters, sounds, and pre-reading skills.

Well! Those passions have combined to create this love baby (too much … I see that.) Seventy Eight pages of free printable colouring pages that ALSO teach little ones their letters, sound blending, and pre-reading skills.

I have shared with you before about how I strongly suggest (strongly) we teach little ones their letters. We start with their name letters and then progress through small groups, in a special order. In this order we teach letter names, sounds, and introduce sound blending through simple word families. I write all about that in this post called Teaching Letter Recognition.

So I won’t repeat that entire post here, but please do pop over to read it. 

These colouring pages go along with that method. You can print out session one and work on the first grouping of letters with your little ones. In that first session you receive lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and word families that can be formed using the letters in that first grouping.

I call this freebie my, “Preschool Brilliance Starter Kit” and it is the perfect introduction to what you can expect in my “Preschool Brilliance the Complete Kit” package.

So, without further ado, Here is your download link for the Preschool Brilliance Starter Kit!
