Lesson Type

Activities

Sound Hunt

Children practice finding sounds in names and then finding those same sounds in words. For example, in the lesson that focuses on the letter F, children practice finding the /f/ sound in names (e.g., So-/f/-ia or /f/-rancis), then they work on finding the /f/ sound in other words (e.g., /f/-rog or /f/-ox).

Letter Hunt

Children practice linking sounds to letters, recognizing letters of the alphabet, and writing or printing letters. For example, the teacher helps children understand how the sound /f/ links to the letter F. The teacher writes down names and words that include the /f/ sound to model how the sound links to the letters used to write it, then they encourage children to practice writing or printing the letter F (uppercase and lowercase).

Word Games

Children practice building knowledge and vocabulary, blending syllables, matching letters and sounds, describing, comparing, categorizing, and creating. Using Picture Cards, children play a guessing game where they use four language clues to guess a word that begins with the /f/ sound. For example, the teacher will say “I’m thinking of a word that starts with /f/, that’s part of the body, that’s joined to your leg, that you can put a sock on, and that you can put a shoe on.” Next, children practice categorizing other picture cards (e.g., finding all the cards that show parts of the body).

Sound Games

Children practice segmenting syllables and recognizing and producing rhymes. Using words that start with the target sound, children practice clapping syllables, rhyming, and demonstrating other phonics skills, like blending, segmenting, sorting by sound, discriminating sounds, deleting syllables, isolating sounds.

Game Numbers

Activities

Vocabulary and background knowledge

Children practice naming a range of items to show an understanding of them, finding things that have the same and opposite qualities, discussing everyday things, and thinking of adjectives and using them to describe different living or nonliving things.

Describing

Children practice describing things in different ways: animals (where they live, what covers their bodies, what they eat, etc.), everyday things (their size, what they are made from, how they are used, what makes them work, etc.), and food (color, shape, size, etc.).

Comparing

Children practice describing and comparing living and nonliving things (by size, shape, use, color, etc.) that have similar and different qualities and generating a variety of words to describe and compare what is the same and what is different in a group of cards.

Categorizing

Children practice comparing and grouping living and nonliving things according to shared qualities. They also find things that don’t fit in the group because these things don’t share a particular quality.

Competency

Game Numbers

Activities

Syllables

Children practice sorting picture cards by the number of syllables, matching pairs of words with the same number of syllables, finding one word from a set of three words that has a different number of syllables, and breaking words into syllables and then pronouncing the word made by deleting the last syllable.

Rhyming

Children practice matching pairs of Picture Cards that have words that rhyme, finding one word in a set of three that does not rhyme, completing a sentence with a rhyming word, and generating groups of rhyming words.

Blending

Children practice blending sound chunks (onset and rime) and individual sounds to pronounce words. They then use the words they have made to generate rhyming words and to sort words by their initial sound.

Segmenting

Children practice segmenting words into individual sounds, matching words that have the same number of sounds, finding the word in a group that has a different number of sounds, and sorting words into groups according to the number of sounds they contain.

Initial sounds

Children practice identifying, discriminating, and deleting initial sounds in words. They match initial sounds, identify and discriminate between similar initial sounds, delete the initial sound and pronounce the word that remains, and swap the initial sound for another sound and then pronounce the word that is made.

Final sounds

Children practice identifying, discriminating, and deleting final sounds in words. They match final sounds, identify and discriminate between similar final sounds, delete the final sound and pronounce the word that remains, and swap the final sound for another sound and then pronounce the word that is made.

Long and short vowel sounds

Children practice identifying and matching the long and short vowel sounds in words.
