7.
Soda (drink with straw)
- Word: "soda"
- Ending sound:
a? Wait — but we’re looking for a
consonant ending sound, and the options are k, l, p.
- But “soda” ends in
a, which is a vowel. However, in phonics, sometimes the final consonant sound is emphasized.
- But wait — perhaps this is meant to be
"cup" or
"pop"? Let’s reconsider.
- Actually, the image shows a cup with a straw and polka dots — it looks like a
soda pop.
- Commonly, such images represent
"pop".
- So if it's
"pop", ending sound is
p.
- Options: k, l, p
-
✔ Correct answer:
p
8.
Ice cream
- Word: "ice cream"
- The last syllable is "cream", ending in
m?
- But the options are: m, w, t
- Wait — actually, the
ending sound of "ice cream" is
m (from "cream").
- So the correct letter should be
m.
-
✔ Correct answer:
m
9.
Mitten
- Word: "mitten"
- Ending sound:
n
- Options: d, k, n

✔ Correct answer:
