Letter G Worksheets
Grade Level: Kindergarten
|
|
The Letter G is an unreliable letter. It makes the "guh"
(hard g - /g/ sound) as in garden
or dog or the
"juh" (soft g - /j/ sound) as in giraffe.
When combined with the letter "d", a grapheme is formed
which sounds like /j/ (as in ledger)
G is part of the 'gh' digraph which can make the /g/ sound as in ghost
or the /f/ sound as in cough.
G is part of the 'ng' digraph which can make the hard sound as in finger,
the soft sound as in change,
or the combined sound (the most common) as in sing.
The difference in these pronunciations is minor, but important (to see why,
try pronouncing singer like you would finger).
G is sometimes silent as in gnat
or gnaw.
When G is followed by 'e' or 'i' it sometimes has the soft sound /j/ (as in
gem or giraffe). Thanks
