30 pairs of rhyming words with pictures

30 pairs of rhyming words with pictures cards.

Here we have 30 pairs (60 picture cards in all) of words that rhyme for pronunciation classes. These free printable pairs of rhyming words are perfect for pronunciation classes. Although they were originally designed for kids they actually also work great in adults ESL speaking lessons also! Note that these are all one-syllable rhyming words.

Depending on the level of your students you can choose to give your class one or two sheets or even the whole set to solve for one big super rhyming pairs activity!

The rhyming cards pairs for sheet one above are –

Car and Star, Bag and Flag, Two and Shoe, Snake and Cake, Fan and Van, Frog and Dog.

How to use the rhyming pairs worksheets

The main idea is to cut the out along the dotted lines to create rhyming picture cards. You then give the cards to your students to match. This works well as pair work or a group activity if you use 3 or more of the handouts. Each sheet has its own pair so you can print whichever ones you think are suitable for your class.

The pairs are mixed on the printouts. This is for younger learners who you can give 1 sheet at a time to colour in. First ask them to identify a pair of rhyming words, then get them to colour in the two words with the same coloured pencil or crayon. For example house and mouse may be blue, fox and box can be orange, and door and for can be green.

Note that they should color the square around the picture, not the picture itself. For this activity the cards don’t need to be cut out.

The rhyming pairs in sheet number two are –

House and Mouse

Rain and Train

Ring and King

Door and Four

Fox and Box

Bat and Cat

On sheet three the rhyming pictures are –

Sun and One

Feet and Meat

Spoon and Moon

Kite and Light

Bear and Chair

Dish and Fish

On rhyming pairs worksheet four the pictures to be grouped together are –

Ship and Zip

Cap and Map

Hen and Pen

Bee and Key

Book and Hook

Boat and Goat

Rhyming pairs handout 5 has the sets of –

Mice and Dice

Eye and Pie

Cave and Wave

Duck and Truck

Corn and Horn

Shirt and Skirt

Further activities for the rhyming picture pair cards

With several sheets printed and cut out older students can use them as a game of “snap” in groups of three or four. Simply divide the cards equally between each person in each group and going around in a circle get them to lay down 1 card each at a time. If a rhyming pair matches they shout snap and quickly lay their hand on top of the pile to win the cards. The student with the most cards at the end of the game is the winner.

Another activity for younger students is to play “Odd one out”. Set out 3 cards with one card that doesn’t rhyme. Your students must choose the odd cards. You can lay out many sets of three and get each pupil to have a turn one at a time. Also, consider giving them points for correct answers.

You could also use the pairs of rhyming words to do an easy kids’ craft activity . For this, you only need scissors, glue, a blank sheet of paper, and a pen. Ask your students to cut out each picture and then stick the pairs next to each other on the piece of paper. Once they are finished they can write the words above each card.

Finally, there are some more similar resources here at ESL Vault such as the fun rhyming words for kids , and the free printable rhyming picture cards that also have words to help younger learners.

Rhyming Word Pairs Worksheets

Language arts categories, free weekly worksheets, worksheets by email, what is rhyming.

Seemingly, when we talk about the English Language, we only think about the 26 letters that constitute. But there is so much more to it than that. Especially because there are so many words that we form with the alphabets in the English Language. And with that, there is something called rhyming. Do you know what that is? Let's take a look at it! A repetition of similar sounds in the final stressed syllables and any following syllables of two or more words is known as a rhyme. Most often, this kind of perfect rhyming is consciously used for effect in the final positions of lines of poems and songs. This is known as rhyming. Words that rhyme with each other are known as rhyming words. For example, the word "cool" rhymes with "school." There are tons of rhyming words; New - Knew | Crawl- Brawl | Nice- Mice | Honey- Bunny

Rhymes are the act of placing words that have similar sounds usually at the end of poems or songs. The sounds are most often produced by complementing the vowels in the stressed syllables. The consonant in those same syllables must match as well. The following collection of activity sheets will help your students practice identifying words that rhyme. Activities include matching pictures whose words rhyme, connecting rhyming words from two lists, adding letters to create words that rhyme with a given prompt, writing words from a given picture prompt, and more. The worksheets will not only help students understand the concept of rhyming, but the thought behind each rhyme. Students will learn to write their own as you progress down this page. We also look at historically famous rhymes and their contribution to literature. There is a huge assortment of styles in the worksheets below. We really try to make it fun for the children and get them engaged in the work.

How to Improve Your Ability to Rhyme Words?

The concept of a rhyme escapes some students, mostly because of popular culture and art forms. Students sometimes hear rhythms in nonexistent words due to this. They may be near or imperfect rhyming words that cut it in a song, but not in a literature form. There three common classifications of rhyming words. Single rhymes, which are the most common, are focused on the final syllable of the word. An example of a single would be the words: teary and weary. Double rhymes exhibit the second to last syllable stress, an example is the words: boasting and roasting. The last classification is called dactylic which is very uncommon in the English language. This is a three-syllable metered pattern where there is a stressed syllable followed by two unstressed syllables.

A rhyme is defined as the repeating of a word's last sound or sounds. For instance, the word "Ray" rhymes with "day" and so on. Internal rhyming occurs when words rhyme inside the same line. The ends of two lines frequently rhyme; this is known as external rhyme. In traditional poems, these end rhymes frequently repeat themselves, forming patterns. The most basic pattern is a couplet, consisting of two successive lines that rhyme. The renowned New England Primer opens with this pattern: "In Adam's Fall/ We all sinned." Rhyme is still used in modern poetry, but less frequently and in unanticipated ways.

Rhyming is frequently connected with poetry. Although the medium comprises non-rhyming forms, any new poet should learn to add rhyme to their work. It will take time and effort to master rhyming systems and certain forms of rhyme, but once you do, you'll be able to weave fascinating rhymes into your poetry and increase the overall quality of your work.

The Importance

Traditional poetry contains a set of regular rhythms that make it simpler to memorize for recitation. Because they mimic the natural movement of the human body, these rhythms are very pleasurable. That's why poetry with regular rhythms are frequently matched to marching and dance music, enhancing the beat's impact. "The Battle Hymn," for example, is a stirring march because the lyrics and music complement each other. Many recent poems are written in free verse, which means they do not follow rigid sing-song patterns. However, a well-crafted rhythm gives aesthetic and emotional pleasure to this poetry as well.

Why Use Them?

A poem's overall impression is created by combining several other components with rhythm and rhyme. Despite the literal meaning of a poem's lines, figures of speech such as metaphor and irony bend that literal meaning and add emotion. Memories and connections from your past are evoked by sensory pictures of taste, touch, and smell. Read aloud to get the full impact of a poem's numerous methods, including its sound. It's not about decoding meaning in a poem; it's about experiencing an experience.

In poetry, each accent is usually separated by one to three syllables. Because readers can't predict their stress points, poems without a consistent and reliable pattern of accented and unaccented syllables appear jagged, disjointed, and chaotic. Consider singing a song in a monotone without a consistent beat. Consider a sentence that contains no punctuation. Meter allows a poem's ebb and flows to be consistent and predictable. Consistent patterns of specific components of words, such as syllables and accents, generate this rhythm.

How to Write Words That Rhyme?

Poem writing necessitates a continual awareness and cataloging of the environment around you. Most poets and writers have a notepad with them at all times to jot down any thoughts that come to them over the course of their daily lives. A notebook is also useful for poets in case certain lines or rhymes spring to mind that you'd like to utilize later.

In addition to rhyme, there are a number of additional approaches you may use to change the tone and rhythm of your poetry. Using assonance or consonance to play with vowel and consonant sounds in your poetry may be a good compliment to the rhymes. Alliteration gives a poetry texture and rhythm.

The tone of a poem is influenced by word choice, emotion, and voice, but a meter helps determine the rhythm to complement the underlying tone. Sad or dark poetry can contain three syllables between each accent to slow down the tempo. An intense, lively poem could only have one syllable between each accent, giving it a fast-paced, dynamic rhythm. Meter aids in the development of a good stride in a poet or reader, allowing desired emotions and sensations to be appropriately portrayed.

Most poetry includes rhyming words. Even though there are non-rhyming forms in the medium, you must learn how to incorporate rhyme into your work, especially if you are a novice poet. Writing poetry is hard and learning to use rhyming words can become intimidating. However, once you learn how to rhyme, including the rhyming words in your work will become super simple.

Here are some ways you can improve your ability to rhyme words:

1. Make Use of a Common Scheme

If you're looking for rhyme schemes, you're in luck- there are loads available that you can play with.

If rhyme words are new to you, you can stick to simple rhyme schemes such as the ABCB or ABAB rhyme scheme before you experiment with complex schemes.

2. Don't Be Afraid to Try New Poetry Forms

Trying different forms of poetry allows you to experiment and play around with different types of rhymes and rhyme schemes.

You can challenge yourself with a terza rima, limerick, villanelle, ballade, or Shakespearean sonnet. Keep in mind that other forms like free verse and haiku do not use rhymes.

3. Play Around with the Types of Rhymes

Most poetry only uses simple line rhymes. While these are great, you would be surprised to know how many other kinds of rhymes are available.

You can try techniques like internal rhyme, monorhyme, alternate rhyme, and enclosed rhyme. Write a poem and see which technique works well for you.

4. Try Your Hand at Sound Repetition

In addition to rhyme words, there are other ways to make your poems interesting. You can vary the rhythm as well as sound. Consonant and vowel sounds are a nice touch to include in your poems.

These include assonance as well as consonance, as these will go well with the rhyme words you use. If you are looking to add rhythm and texture to your poem, alliteration could be a great idea.

5. Work on Frequency

Keep in mind that when you rhyme, you have to focus on more than one syllable. This means that multi-syllable rhymes and multiple rhyme schemes can really help you improve your ability to rhyme words.

By increasing the frequency at which you rhyme, you will start to sound more aggressive. If you want to build aggression and garner audience interest, you can switch between frequencies when you are rhyming.

6. Pay Attention to Context

Rhyming is a great way to add a twist to your poem. However, it is important that your rhymes make sense and you don't end up rhyming about things that are out of context.

Make a note of the theme of your poem beforehand and keep referring to it when you write your rhymes. This will help you stay focused instead of writing a rhyming piece that makes absolutely no sense at all.

7. Make Use of a Rhyming Dictionary

When you are trying to improve your ability to rhyme words, there is no harm in using a rhyming dictionary.

Of course, it might have been a while since you have used one, but a rhyming dictionary can be extremely helpful, especially since you can use it to think of rhyming end words and create new rhymes for your poetry.

What Are Rhyming Words?

Rhyming words are words that have similar sounds at the end, often sharing the same vowel and consonant patterns. They play a vital role in language acquisition as they help children recognize patterns and develop their phonological awareness. By identifying and generating rhyming words, young learners improve their reading, writing, and communication abilities.

The Role of Rhyming Worksheets

Rhyming words worksheets provide a structured and engaging platform for teaching and reinforcing rhyming skills. Rhyming printables offer a variety of activities, such as matching words, completing sentences, and creating rhyming pairs.
