Step-by-step solution for: 6 Free Ending Sounds Activities for Small Groups - KindergartenWorks
This worksheet is titled "Ending Sound Stamps", and it's designed to help young learners (likely kindergarten students) practice identifying the ending sounds of words by matching pictures to their final phonetic sounds.
---
Each row has:
- A picture (e.g., a sun, a bed, a cat)
- A blank space next to it
- The goal is to stamp or write the letter that represents the ending sound of the word associated with the picture.
Some cells already have letters stamped or written in — likely using a stamp or marker — like G, X, T, P, etc.
---
#### Row 1:
1. Paperclip → "clip" → ends in P
✘ Currently empty — should be P
2. Sun → "sun" → ends in N
✘ Currently empty — should be N
3. Log → "log" → ends in G
✔ Already marked G — correct!
4. Spiderweb → "web" → ends in B
✘ Currently empty — should be B
---
#### Row 2:
5. Bed → "bed" → ends in D
✘ Currently has d (lowercase), but it's not clear if it's correct or just doodled — should be D (or lowercase d) — possibly correct
6. Bag → "bag" → ends in G
✔ Already marked G — correct!
7. Pan → "pan" → ends in N
✘ Currently empty — should be N
8. Robot → "bot" → ends in T
✘ Currently empty — should be T
---
#### Row 3:
9. Box → "box" → ends in X
✔ Already marked X — correct!
10. Cat → "cat" → ends in T
✘ Currently has X — incorrect! Should be T
11. Mug → "mug" → ends in G
✔ Already marked G — correct!
12. Pig → "pig" → ends in G
✘ Currently empty — should be G
---
#### Row 4:
13. Cat (again) → "cat" → ends in T
✔ Already marked T — correct!
14. Monkey at table → "table"? Or "monkey"? Likely "table" → ends in L
✘ Currently empty — should be L
15. Pants → "pants" → ends in S
✘ Currently empty — should be S
16. Candy bag → "bag" → ends in G
✘ Currently empty — should be G
---
#### Row 5:
17. Mouth → "mouth" → ends in TH → but usually taught as T or H? In early phonics, often simplified to T or H
But the most common ending sound focus here is T (as in "mouth" rhymes with "bath")
However, some may expect H or TH — but since this is a simple stamp activity, likely expecting T
✔ Already marked P — ✘ Incorrect! Should be T or H — probably T
18. Camera → "camera" → ends in A? But we're focusing on *final consonant* — actually, "camera" ends in A, but it's a vowel sound.
Wait — maybe it's a "pocket camera"? But still, "camera" ends in a → no consonant.
Hmm... perhaps it's meant to be "cam"? Or maybe it's a mistake?
Alternatively, maybe it's "lens"? But it looks like a camera.
Actually, "camera" ends in A, which is a vowel — so no ending consonant. But this activity seems focused on consonants.
Perhaps the intended word is "photo"? But it's clearly a camera.
Let’s assume it's "camera", and the ending sound is A — but since we’re using letters like G, P, T, etc., this might be an error.
Alternatively, maybe it's "pen"? No — it's a camera.
⚠️ This one is ambiguous. Possibly A or R? But not clear.
However, the answer P is already there — ✘ Incorrect.
Maybe it's supposed to be "picture"? But it's labeled as a camera.
Let’s skip for now.
19. Pen → "pen" → ends in N
✘ Currently empty — should be N
20. Spoon → "spoon" → ends in N
✔ Already marked P — ✘ Incorrect! Should be N
---
| Picture | Word | Ending Sound | Current Answer | Correct? |
|--------|------|--------------|----------------|---------|
| Paperclip | clip | P | Empty | ✘ Add P |
| Sun | sun | N | Empty | ✘ Add N |
| Log | log | G | G | ✔ Correct |
| Spiderweb | web | B | Empty | ✘ Add B |
| Bed | bed | D | d | ✔ Possibly correct (if lowercase accepted) |
| Bag | bag | G | G | ✔ Correct |
| Pan | pan | N | Empty | ✘ Add N |
| Robot | bot | T | Empty | ✘ Add T |
| Box | box | X | X | ✔ Correct |
| Cat | cat | T | X | ✘ Change to T |
| Mug | mug | G | G | ✔ Correct |
| Pig | pig | G | Empty | ✘ Add G |
| Cat | cat | T | T | ✔ Correct |
| Monkey at table | table | L | Empty | ✘ Add L |
| Pants | pants | S | Empty | ✘ Add S |
| Candy bag | bag | G | Empty | ✘ Add G |
| Mouth | mouth | T or H | P | ✘ Change to T or H |
| Camera | camera | A | P | ✘ Change to A (but not ideal) |
| Pen | pen | N | Empty | ✘ Add N |
| Spoon | spoon | N | P | ✘ Change to N |
---
The student has made several errors:
- Marked X for cat instead of T
- Marked P for mouth (should be T or H)
- Marked P for spoon (should be N)
- Marked P for camera (ambiguous, but not P)
- Missing letters for many others
---
1. Identify the word for each picture.
2. Say the word aloud.
3. Focus on the last sound.
4. Write or stamp the letter representing that sound.
For example:
- Sun → /sʌn/ → ends in /n/ → N
- Pan → /pæn/ → ends in /n/ → N
- Robot → /ˈroʊ.bɑːt/ → ends in /t/ → T
- Spoon → /spuːn/ → ends in /n/ → N
---
This activity helps build phonemic awareness — the ability to hear and identify individual sounds in words. It's foundational for reading and spelling.

| Picture | Ending Sound |
|--------|-------------|
| Paperclip | P |
| Sun | N |
| Log | G |
| Spiderweb | B |
| Bed | D |
| Bag | G |
| Pan | N |
| Robot | T |
| Box | X |
| Cat | T |
| Mug | G |
| Pig | G |
| Cat | T |
| Table | L |
| Pants | S |
| Candy bag | G |
| Mouth | T (or H) |
| Camera | A (vowel) |
| Pen | N |
| Spoon | N |
> Note: For camera, since it ends in a vowel, it might not fit the pattern. Consider replacing it with a word ending in a consonant, like "cap" or "cup".
---
The worksheet is a great phonics tool, but the student needs to:
- Pay attention to the actual ending sound, not guess based on shape.
- Use correct letter names (e.g., “T” not “X”).
- Be consistent with uppercase/lowercase (though stamps are often uppercase).
With guidance, this can be a fun and effective learning activity!
