To solve this problem, we need to look at each picture and decide if the word for that object starts with the letter
Z (or the "zz" sound).
Here is the step-by-step check for each item:
1.
Goat: Starts with G. (No)
2.
Boy/Zipper?: The boy himself doesn't start with Z. However, looking closely at his shirt, there might be a zipper, but usually, these puzzles depict the main object. Let's look at the other items first. Wait, looking at the third row, second item, those are clearly
zippers. The boy is just a "boy". So, No.
3.
Zebra: Starts with
Z. (Yes)
4.
Zero: The number 0 is called "zero". It starts with
Z. (Yes)
5.
Zigzag: The lightning bolt shape is often called a "zigzag" line in phonics worksheets. It starts with
Z. (Yes)
6.
Iron: This is an iron for clothes. Starts with I. (No)
7.
Mixer/Zap?: This looks like a hand mixer. Starts with M. Sometimes "zap" is used for electric things, but "mixer" is the common noun. Let's stick with No.
8.
Zippers: These are two zippers. Starts with
Z. (Yes)
9.
Zoo: The picture shows animals (like an elephant) in an enclosure with trees. This represents a zoo. Starts with
Z. (Yes)
So, the pictures that begin with the letter Z are:
* The Zebra
* The Zero (the number 0 character)
* The Zigzag line
* The Zippers
* The Zoo scene
Final Answer:
You should color the following pictures:
1. The
Zebra
2. The
Zero (the round number with arms)
3. The
Zigzag line (the lightning bolt shape)
4. The
Zippers
5. The
Zoo (the animals in the enclosure)
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of z sound worksheet.
