Step-by-step solution for: Free Printable Phonics Worksheet - kiddoworksheets
Let's solve this Phonics Worksheet step by step. The goal is to fill in the missing vowel(s) in each word based on the picture provided.
---
Write the correct vowel (a, e, i, o, u) to complete each word. Each word corresponds to a picture.
---
1. Fish – Picture: A fish
- Word: `f_sh` → Missing vowel is i
- ✔ fish
2. Dog – Picture: A dog
- Word: `d_g` → Missing vowel is o
- ✔ dog
3. Sun – Picture: A sun
- Word: `s_n` → Missing vowel is u
- ✔ sun
4. Egg – Picture: Two eggs
- Word: `_gg` → Missing vowel is e
- ✔ egg
5. Van – Picture: A van
- Word: `v_n` → Missing vowel is a
- ✔ van
6. Ten – Picture: Number 10
- Word: `t_n` → Missing vowel is e
- ✔ ten
7. Duck – Picture: A duck
- Word: `d_ck` → Missing vowel is u
- ✔ duck
8. Frog – Picture: A frog
- Word: `fr_g` → Missing vowel is o
- ✔ frog
9. Grass – Picture: Grass
- Word: `gr_ss` → Missing vowel is a
- ✔ grass
10. Rain – Picture: Raindrops from a cloud
- Word: `r__n` → Two missing vowels? Wait — it’s `r__n`, so two blanks. But "rain" has a and i.
- Actually, only one vowel is missing between r and n? Let's check:
- "rain" = r-a-i-n → So there are two vowels: a and i
- But the blank is `r__n` — two underscores. So we need to fill both vowels.
- ✔ rain → Fill in a and i → r_a_i_n?
Wait — but the worksheet says "write the correct vowel" — singular. But here we have two blanks. Let's look again.
Actually, looking at the image:
- The word is written as: `r__n` → two underscores
- This likely means two vowels are missing: a and i
- But since the instruction says “write the correct vowel”, maybe it's expecting just the first vowel? Or perhaps it's a typo?
But "rain" has two vowels: a and i, and the structure is r-a-i-n, so both blanks should be filled.
However, if only one vowel is expected, that doesn’t make sense. But looking at other words, like "ch_ck" (chick), only one vowel is missing.
So let’s double-check:
- `r__n` — two blanks — probably meant to be r_a_i_n, so vowels a and i
But wait — perhaps it's a mistake? Let's see the picture: rain cloud → yes, "rain"
But the word format is `r__n` — so two blanks → likely for a and i
But the instruction says “write the correct vowel” — plural might be implied, but it says “vowel” (singular). Hmm.
Wait — maybe it's a typo? Or maybe it's supposed to be `r_n` with one blank? But no, it shows two underscores.
Alternatively, could it be rain → `r_a_i_n` → two vowels needed.
So even though the instruction says “vowel”, it might allow multiple vowels.
Let’s proceed carefully.
11. Chick – Picture: A chick
- Word: `ch_ck` → Missing vowel is i
- ✔ chick
12. Tulip – Picture: A flower (tulip)
- Word: `t_lip` → Missing vowel is u
- ✔ tulip
---
Now back to rain (`r__n`):
- It has two vowels: a and i
- The word is spelled r-a-i-n, so the two blanks are for a and i
Even though the instruction says “vowel”, it may be a general term, or possibly a typo. But given the format, we must fill both.

This worksheet helps children practice short vowel sounds and associate words with pictures. Words like "rain" have long vowel sounds (long 'a' and 'i'), but the focus here is on spelling and phonics recognition.
