9. Phonics vs. Phonemic Awareness

10. Phonemic Awareness They can count words. They can count syllables in words. They can rhyme. They can put sounds together to make a word. They can identify the first and last sound in a word. This is not the same thing as knowing the letter. For example, if you ask your child the first sound in the word phone, she should be able to answer /f/.

11. Promoting Phonemic Awareness

12.  Give each student a cup with counters. Say a sentence normally and then recite it very slowly (“The sky is blue.”). The students should give you one counter for each word of the sentence.  Teach students to count syllables by starting with their own names. Then move on to other familiar words.  Read rhyming books.  Play rhyming games.

13. Clip It! Cards

14. Rhyming Games Give clues for the same rhyming family. Here’s an example from the –at family:  This animal says “meow.” (cat)  This animal sleeps upside down. (bat)  This is something by the door you might step on. (mat)

15. Rhyming Games Ask for a particular type of word that rhymes with the word you give. It’s okay to use nonsense words.  What animal rhymes with wig?  Which color rhymes with mean?  What food rhymes with maghetti?
