Count the Phonemes or Sounds in Words~Circus Peanuts, Phonemic Awareness K-1

By Regina Frazier

Students will count the phonemes or sounds they hear in picture word cards and place them on peanut bags. They will place the peanut word card under the number that represents the sounds they hear. This is a terrific phonemic awareness activity. Students need to know the difference between counting the sounds they hear in words and counting letters in words. I also find that many students often confuse counting phonemes with counting syllables in words. Students need to practice this phonemic awareness skill often so they can become better writers and their inventive spelling will improve. They need lots and lots of practice. Breaking words up into individual sounds is in many DIBELS testing that kindergarten students are expected to do.

You could use this activity on a pocket chart or

I updated this packet to include 36 pictures for students to sort into categories as they count the sounds they hear in words. There are extra peanuts for you to use if you wish to design new words to add to this activity. This activity also comes with an Answer Key.

You will receive the following:

  • Sorting mats for two sounds, three sounds, and four sounds
  • 36 peanut sorting cards with pictures and words
  • 36 peanut sorting cards with just the pictures and no words
  • recording sheets with primary lined paper (differentiated by the number of lines)
  • recording sheets with secondary lined paper (differentiated by the number of lines)
  • Answer Key
