What’s included?
This download includes three pdf sheets, portrait, in colour/B&W featuring ten images that all begin with the ‘j’ sound. The images can be matched to reinforce knowledge of the ‘j’ sound as well as ordering the images to make a miniature ‘Jj’ book (included).

Who’s it for?
This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as older students needing additional learning support.

What’s it for?
This resource is to reinforce learners knowledge of the ‘j’ sound, to practise matching two items with the same sound and to use their knowledge of the alphabet to make a a miniature ‘Jj’ book.

This is a fun and engaging way to practise recognising the letter j, reinforcing learners knowledge of the initial ‘j’ sound and developing the skill of ordering items alphabetically.

This resource is designed to be used by itself, however as other sets are available different sounds could be combined and presented to learners for them to sort according to which initial sound the different (mixed) images have.

How to use it?
All sheets can be printed onto paper. Page 3 can be made into a miniature book (simple instructions included). To make a book scissors and a glue stick are all that is needed. Once the book is made either the colour set of words/images (page 1) OR the black and white set of words/images (page 2) can be cut and ordered alphabetically and then stuck into the miniature book (one word/image per page).

Page 1 is the colour version of words/images which all begin with ‘j’. These can be cut up (using the dotted lines as a guide for where to cut). Page 2 is the black and white version of page 1 but in addition includes the outline of each word with a starting dot for each letter - encouraging learners to write the word for each image themselves. Learners can also colour these images.

Pages 1 and 2 could be used together as two sets of cards to play a pairs/matching game, for this these pages would be better printed onto card (so that the images cannot be seen through the back as would be the case if using paper).

Resource details
The images included for j are:
jacket, jay (bird), jeans, jelly, jellyfish, jigsaw, juice, jukebox, jumper and joker (or jester!)
