My friend, whether you’re planning an alphabet week in your classroom or supporting early learning at home. This printable pack will be so helpful.

With tracing practice, coloring fun, and a build-your-own flip book, your preschooler will explore the letter S in multiple ways.

So, let’s walk through exactly what’s included and how to make the most of it!

Inside the Free Letter S Is For Printable Pack

This letter S printable pack is made up of two simple, highly effective resources:

• A one-page worksheet with traceable sentences and S-themed vocabulary.

• A 7-page flip book activity, perfect for fine motor skills, early reading, and coloring fun.

Whether you’re working 1:1 or with a group of preschoolers. These pages are easy to prep and even easier to enjoy.

Letter S Is For Worksheet 

Let’s begin with the single-page worksheet.

This sheet is the perfect way to introduce the sound and shape of the letter S to your preschooler.

On this page, your preschooler will:

Trace the sentence “S is for” followed by four s words – scarf, salt, safe, and sad.

Once they are done with tracing, they can enjoy coloring the picture for each word.

I think this worksheet is great for your first day of focusing on the letter S.

As your child traces each word, say it aloud and emphasize the /s/ sound.

You might even hold up a scarf or sprinkle a little salt to bring the words to life through hands-on learning. Which is ideal for kids at this age!

Letter S Flip Book – Cut, Trace, Color & Read!

As the week continues, keep the letter fun going with the Letter S Flip Book.

This is where your preschooler can take a more active role in building their own little book while reinforcing everything they’re learning.

Each flip book page includes:

“S is for ___”. Followed by a large coloring image to represent the S word.

The seven words in the flip book are:

• Sheep

• Shoe

• Snack

• Sock

• Spoon

• Shark

• Sun

With two rectangles per page, it’s easy for you to print, cut, and staple these into a custom flip book for your child.

Use this book daily to help your child build fluency in:

• Tracing words.

• Practice saying words aloud.

• Identify the initial /s/ sound.

• Build phonemic awareness and early reading skills.

Each flip-book page doubles as a mini-lesson.

For instance, after working on the s is for sock sheet,  you could have your child find a matching pair in the laundry basket!

Weekly Plan for Letter S Is For Printables

Here’s a suggested way that you can consider using this resource throughout the week for maximum learning and fun:

Monday – Kick Off with the “S is for” Worksheet

Introduce the letter S using the one-page worksheet. Going through the four vocabulary words together.

Encourage your child to trace each word slowly and carefully, then color the matching pictures.

Take time to talk about each item.

For example, “What do we use salt for?” or “What does it feel like to be sad?”

Tuesday to Thursday – Flip Book Building

Each day, choose 2–3 pages from the flip book.

Have your preschooler say S is for…, trace the word, color the illustration, and talk about the word.

Cut out the rectangles together and start building the flip book as you go.

Ask fun questions like:

• “Have you ever seen a sheep?”

• “What’s your favorite snack?”

• “When do we wear socks?”

These conversations help build language skills and real-world connections.

Friday – Final Assembly and Reading Practice

Time to put it all together!

Staple the pages to create the flip book. Let your child “read” it aloud to a sibling, stuffed animal, or the whole class.

This activity supports memory recall, phonics, and reading confidence.
