Why the Letter C Matters (and How These Printables Help)
The letter C is known as a tricky letter because it makes two sounds, the soft “s” sound in city and the hard “k” sound in cat. In these activities, we focus on the hard /k/ sound to help children master it first before learning the soft variation.
These worksheets gently guide kids through every stage of learning:
- Handwriting – Mastering the smooth curve of the uppercase and lowercase C.
- Phonics – Connecting the letter C with the /k/ sound confidently.
- Motor Skills – Strengthening hand control with dot markers and large bubble letters.
- Vocabulary – Learning over 10 fun words like cat, cow, cup, carrot, and crayons.
Let’s take a closer look at each section of this learning bundle.
