Au Ki Matra Worksheets

A gentle start with औ की मात्रा

This set introduces children to the औ की मात्रा through familiar words such as कौआ, नौका, चौक, लौकी and दौड़. Younger children can trace the matra, identify it in large words and match words with pictures. Older children can read short words, complete missing matras and write their own examples. The activities move from recognition to independent practice, so you can choose a suitable sheet for Nursery, LKG, UKG or early primary learners. Children who are still learning Hindi vowels may first benefit from the Hindi Swar Worksheets.

Simple ways to use the worksheets

At home, begin with one word and say it slowly with your child. Ask your child to circle the औ की मात्रा, read the word and colour the matching picture. In class, place word cards on desks and let children find pairs such as कौआ and its picture, or नौका and its picture. Use a worksheet as a short warm-up before Hindi writing time, then invite children to say another word with the same matra. You can also read the completed words aloud together and clap once for each spoken part.

Help with common reading and writing mistakes

Children often confuse the औ की मात्रा with the ओ की मात्रा because the two signs look similar. They may write कौ as को, leave out one part of the matra or read a word without noticing the vowel sound. Say pairs such as को and कौ, then let your child listen and point to the correct word. When writing, show the full word first and then ask which consonant carries the matra. Keep the practice slow and clear, and praise careful listening rather than rushing through every answer.
