Rhyming Activities for Kindergarten
Rhyming teaches children how language works; it helps them to notice and work with the sounds within words. Once students are familiar with a rhyme, they will anticipate the sound of another word. As early learners learn this skill, they will be prepared to make predictions when they read, another important reading skill. This fun back to school rhyming activity for kindergarteners is a great way to working on this skill.

Rhyming Activities
To complete the rhyming puzzles, students will hold up a piece and say what is pictured out loud. In the above example we are holding a “star”. Kindergarten and first grade students will then look for a word that sounds like / rhymes with star. Star and car rhyme.
To make the activity a little easier, put out fewer pieces to match up at a time.
HINT: This activity can be made self checking by writing the words / matches on the back of the pieces.
