Consolidate children’s learning of the letter ‘i’ with these letter ‘i’ worksheets for Phase 2 phonics. Designed for Reception children who have already been introduced to the ‘i’ grapheme and /i/ phoneme, the activities provide further practice with letter recognition, letter formation and identifying words and pictures beginning with ‘i’.

This 7-page letter ‘i’ worksheet pack includes finger-tracing and letter-formation practice, activities for finding and recognising the letter ‘i’, identifying pictures beginning with ‘i’, and a consolidation sheet combining letter recognition, tracing, initial sounds, early reading and writing. The tracing activities also support pencil control and the fine motor skills children need for early handwriting.

These letter ‘i’ phonics worksheets are ideal for consolidating a newly taught Phase 2 grapheme. Use them as an adult-led Reception focus task, for independent phonics practice, in a writing or phonics continuous-provision area, or with children who would benefit from revisiting letter recognition and formation.

Using the resources as a handwriting scheme

If you would like to use these letter packs as a progressive handwriting scheme, we suggest teaching the letters in the following order:

  1. l, t, i, j, u, y
  2. r, n, m, h, b, p
  3. c, o, a, d, g, q, s, f, e
  4. v, w, z, x, k
