Animal Sounds

This engaging early literacy worksheet helps students in Preschool, Kindergarten, and Grade 1 strengthen listening comprehension, phonemic awareness, and vocabulary through a familiar farm animal theme. Students read or listen to simple text about farm animals and then draw lines to match each animal-such as cows, pigs, and ducks-to the correct sound it makes, reinforcing sound association, memory, and observation skills while connecting language learning to basic science concepts.
