Compound Word Blending Materials:
• Compound Word List (below)
Directions:
I Do: • Explain that a compound word is made by putting two different words together. For
example, basketball is really two words together: basket ● ball.• Model how to extend one hand as you say the first word and the other hand as you
say the second word. Then clap as you say the two words together as a compoundword.
We Do: • Ask students to listen carefully as you say a pair of words.• Teacher and students will use their hands to repeat the word pair and clap the
compound word.• Continue with 2 or 3 more pairs of words.
You Do: • Ask students to listen carefully as you say a pair of words.• Students will use their hands to repeat the word pair and clap the compound word.• Continue with 10 more pairs of words.

Fix the Broken Word Materials:
• Two-Syllable Word List (see page 3) Directions: I Do:
• Tell children that you have some broken words that need to be put back together. • Model how to extend one hand as you say the first syllable and the other hand as you
say the second syllable. Then clap as you say the two syllables together as a word. We Do:
• Ask students to listen carefully as you say a pair of syllables. • Teacher and students will use their hands to repeat the syllables and clap the word
together. • Continue with 2 or 3 more pairs of syllables.
You Do: • Ask students to listen carefully as you say a pair of syllables. • Students will use their hands to repeat the syllables and clap the word. • Continue with 10 more pairs of syllables.
Who Are You Calling? Materials:
• 2 Syllable Word List (see page 3) • Fake phone receiver or your cell phone
Directions: I Do:
• Pretend someone is calling you (the principal, a family member, etc.). • When you answer it say, “Hi ________. Oh, you need me to gather some things for
you? Sure, I’ll help. What do you need?” • Pretend that you have a bad connection and all you hear are parts of the word: ti –
ger. • Model how to blend the syllables to figure out that the person on the other line needs
a tiger. We Do:
• Repeat the same procedure with 2 or 3 more words. • This time ask the children to help you figure out what the caller is trying to say.
Provide feedback after the children respond. For example, “Yes, when we blend mar - ker, we get marker.”
You Do: • In small group, each child can take a turn blending syllables in 2 syllable words.

Sergeant Smarty
Materials: • Envelope• Picture Cards
Directions: I Do:
• Fill an envelope with several picture cards. Tell the children it’s a mystery envelope and it hassecret words in it. Only good sound detectives can figure out what the words are.
• Using a suspenseful voice, say the onset and the rime, leaving time between each segment(Example: s….ock).
• Model how you are listening to the first sound of the word and then the rest of the word. Thenmodel how you blend the two parts together to say the word.
• Pick up the object that matches the word you made by blending the onset and rime.We Do:
• Encourage children to work together as sound detectives to figure out each word. After theyblend the onset with the rime to make the word, let them pick up the object.
• Provide feedback by saying the sounds separately and then blending them to say the name ofthe object.
You Do: • Provide materials for children to do the skill independently in small groups.
Hungry Monster Materials:
• Homemade Monster Puppet (Hungry Monster)• Picture Cards
Directions: I Do:
• Using a monster voice, have the monster ask for food, but break up the words (onset-rime).• For example, the monster says, “I want some p…eas.” The teacher responds by saying, “Let me figure out
what food you are saying: /p/…eas. If I blend /p/ and eas, I get peas. He must want some peas.”• Then, the teacher can feed him the picture of peas.
We Do: • The teacher and children continue to ask the monster, “What do you want to eat?” The monster
continues to respond by giving the onset and rime separately.• For example, when the children ask, “What do you want to eat?” He says “t-oast.” The teacher
encourages the children to blend /t/ and oast and say toast. Do a few examples with the children.You Do:
• Provide children with pictures of food that have one syllable.• Say the onset (all the sounds before the first vowel) and then say the rime (the rest of the word), leaving
time between each segment: m-ilk, c-ake, ch-eese, n-ut, p-eas.• When you say the onset and rime for each word, the children can feed the hungry monster.
Note: When providing feedback, state back to the children what they did. For example, “Yes, you figured out the name of the food cheese by blending the first part of the word, /ch/, with the rest of the word, eese.” For an incorrect response, model blending the onset and rime of the word.

How Are These Things the Same? Materials:
• Initial Sound Picture Cards Directions: I Do:
• Display picture cards that have the same initial sound. Enunciate the beginning sound as you say each word.
• Model how you figured out how the objects were the same. For example, “When I say sock, listen to the first sound my mouth makes /s/ /s/ -ock.” Call attention to the fact that you heard the same sound /s/ at the beginning of sand, salt, and soap.
We Do: • Display a variety of picture cards (some begin with /s/ and some do not). Tell children that you
need help finding all the objects that begin with /s/. • Have two piles, one for objects that begin with /s/ and one for objects that do not. Name each
object and have students place it in the appropriate pile. Encourage the children to enunciate the /s/ sound as they say the words that begin with /s/.
You Do: • Provide each child in the group with a set of pictures that begin with /s/ and things that do not
begin with /s/. • Tell children to make their own piles of things that start with /s/ and things that don’t.
Continue this process with other beginning phonemes.
One of These is Not Like the Other Materials:
• Initial Sound Picture Cards Directions: I Do:
• Display a set of four picture cards, three that begin with the same sound and one that is different (milk, man, mug, soap). Enunciate the initial sound as you name each object.
• Call attention to the fact that milk, man, and mug all begin with the same beginning sound, /m/. But you notice that soap begins with a different sound. Enunciate /s/ as you pronounce soap. “Soap begins with /s/. It doesn’t belong with the group of words that begin with /m/, so I will remove it from the group. Now we have a group of words that all belong together because they begin with /m/.”
We Do: • Present another set of four pictures, three that begin with the same sound and one that begins
with a different sound. Work with children to figure out which word does not belong in the group. Encourage children to listen carefully to the first sound in each word. Repeat the same strategy with a different set of objects. Provide specific feedback to children’s responses.
You Do: • Provide each child with their own set of four pictures. Ask the children to identify the one that
does not belong. During each child’s turn, have the child say the name of the objects out loud.
10
See It – Sound It Materials: Initial Sound Picture Cards Paper Bag Directions: I Do:
• Place picture cards inside a paper bag. Model how to take one picture out of the bag and tell what it is. Isolate the beginning sound after you say each word. For example, “bear, /b/”
We Do: • Repeat the same procedure, but this time have the students name the picture and
isolate the beginning sound. You Do:
§ Pass the bag around the group, giving each child a turn selecting a picture, naming it, and isolating the beginning sound.
The First Sound Is… Materials: Initial Sound Picture Cards Directions: I Do:
• Place a set of picture cards on the table, making sure they all begin with different sounds. For example, /b/, /s/, /f/, /m/, /d/. Say, “I need to find a picture of something that begins with /b/.”
• Model how to isolate the beginning sound of a few items until you find the picture that begins with /b/ (bear). Show the students the card and say, “bear, /b/”. Then place it back on the table with the others.
We Do: • Use the same set of pictures and say, “Find the object that begins with /m/.” • Let the students look at the pictures and tell you which picture begins with /m/ by
saying “moon, /m/”. • Repeat this procedure with the remaining pictures/sounds.
You Do: § Place a new set of picture cards on the table. Ask a student to choose an item, silently
name the picture, and isolate the beginning sound. § The student will say to the next student, “Find the picture that starts with /__/.” § The next student will respond with the name of the picture and the beginning sound. § Continue this procedure for several more rounds

How Are These Things the Same? Materials: Final Sound Picture Cards Directions: I Do:
• Display picture cards that have the same final sound. Enunciate the final sound as you say each word.
• Model how you figured out how the objects were the same. For example, “When I say sock, listen to the last sound my mouth makes sock /k/ /k/.” Call attention to the fact that you heard the same sound /k/ at the end of duck, lock, rock, and truck.
We Do: • Display a variety of picture cards (some end with /k/ and some do not). Tell children that you
need help finding all the objects that end with /k/. • Have two piles, one for objects that end with /k/ and one for objects that do not. Name each
object and have students place it in the appropriate pile. Encourage the children to enunciate the /k/ sound as they say the words that end with /k/.
You Do: § Provide each child in the group with a set of pictures that end with /k/ and things that do not
end with /k/. § Tell children to make their own piles of things that end with /k/ and things that don’t.
Continue this process with other final phonemes.
One of These is Not Like the Other Materials: Final Sound Picture Cards Directions: I Do: Display a set of four picture cards, three that end with the same sound and one that is different (frog, flag, mug, hat). Enunciate the final sound as you name each object. Call attention to the fact that frog, flag, and mug all end with the same final sound, /g/. But you notice that hat ends with a different sound. Enunciate /t/ as you pronounce hat. “Hat ends with /t/. It doesn’t belong with the group of words that end with /g/, so I will remove it from the group. Now we have a group of words that all belong together because they end with /g/.” We Do:
§ Present another set of four pictures, three that end with the same sound and one that ends with a different sound. Work with children to figure out which word does not belong in the group. Encourage children to listen carefully to the last sound in each word. Repeat the same strategy with a different set of objects. Provide specific feedback to children’s responses.
You Do: § Provide each child with their own set of four pictures. Ask the children to identify the one that
does not belong. During each child’s turn, have the child say the name of the objects out loud.

• Place picture cards inside a paper bag. Model how to take one picture out of the bag and tellwhat it is. Isolate the final sound after you say each word. For example, “web, /b/”
We Do: • Repeat the same procedure, but this time have the students name the picture and isolate the
final sound.You Do:
§ Pass the bag around the group, giving each child a turn selecting a picture, naming it, andisolating the final sound.
The Last Sound Is…
Materials: Final Sound Picture Cards
Directions: I Do:
• Place a set of picture cards on the table, making sure they all end with different sounds. Forexample, /b/, /s/, /f/, /m/, /d/. Say, “I need to find a picture of something that ends with /b/.”
• Model how to isolate the final sound of a few items until you find the picture that ends with/b/ (web). Show the students the card and say, “web, /b/”. Then place it back on the table withthe others.
We Do: • Use the same set of pictures and say, “Find the object that ends with /m/.”• Let the students look at the pictures and tell you which picture ends with /m/ by saying “gum,
/m/”.• Repeat this procedure with the remaining pictures/sounds.
You Do: § Place a new set of picture cards on the table. Ask a student to choose an item, silently name
the picture, and isolate the final sound.§ The student will say to the next student, “Find the picture that ends with /__/.”§ The next student will respond with the name of the picture and the final sound.§ Continue this procedure for several more rounds

What’s the Word?
Materials: 3 and 4 Phoneme Word List (p. 13)
Directions: I Do: Tell the students that they are going to play a game called What’s the Word? Tell the students that you are going to say the sounds in a word. The word is going to have only two sounds. Say, “the sounds are /e/…./g/. What’s the word?” Model how to say the sounds separately and then blend them together to say the word ‘egg’. Demonstrate the same procedure with a 3 phoneme word. We Do:
1. Practice more 3 phoneme words together, making sure you’re only providing the sounds. Ifstudents have mastered 3 phonemes, move on to 4 phonemes.
You Do: 1. Assign students their own sounds to blend independently, assisting only as needed.

Predict the Word
Materials: 3 Phoneme Word List (p.13) (Note: Do not use 4 phonemes)
Directions: I Do: Explain to your scholars that today they will be learning a new reading song that will help them put sounds [phonemes] together to make words. Sing the following song to the tune of “The Wheels on the Bus”:
“The sounds in the word go /c/ /a/ /t/; /c/ /a/ /t/; /c/ /a/ /t/, The sounds in the word go /c/ /a/ /t/, Can you guess the word?”
• Model for the students how to blend the sounds /c/ /a/ /t/ to get the word – cat.We Do:
2. Sing a couple more verses of the song, using different sounds/words.3. Invite the students to name the word at the end of the song.
You Do: 2. Continue singing the song with new sounds/words.3. With each new verse, call on one student at a time to “guess the word”.

Sound Boxes Materials:
• Sound Boxes for each student and the teacher • Sound Markers (counters, bingo chips, pennies, etc.) • 3 and 4 Phoneme Word List (see page 13)
Directions: I Do:
• Begin by saying, “Today we are going to practice segmenting sounds to make words.” Show students how to set up the Sound Boxes by placing a sound marker under each sound box.
• Say a word from the 3 Phoneme Word List (for example, let). Model how to say the word slowly, phoneme by phoneme (/l/…/e/…/t/) as you move a sound marker to each box (in a left-to-right progression).
• Say the word again (let), sliding your finger below the boxes from left to right. We Do:
• Pass out the materials to each student and repeat the same procedure. • This time, the students will say the sounds and move the sound markers along
with the teacher. Practice this together with several more words. You Do:
• Continue the same procedure, but this time the teacher should only provide the word. Assist students only when necessary.

I Spy a Letter Materials: Chart Paper or Dry Erase Board (with no more than 6 unknown letters printed on it) Magnifying glass (optional)
Directions: I Do: Tell students that every letter has its own special look. Introduce the letters that are on the chart on separate letter cards. For example, “I would like you to meet T. It has its own special look. It has a long straight line down and a little straight line across the top.” Tell students that they are going to play a game called “I Spy a Letter”. Describe one of the letters on the chart by saying “I spy a letter that…” and model how to identify the letter using a magnifying glass.
We Do: 7. Describe a different letter on the chart by saying “I spy a letter that…”.8. Have students name the letter you describe.9. Provide feedback by repeating the description and say the letter name.
You Do: 6. Describe a letter on the chart and call on random students to find and name the letter on the
chart7. (Optional) Choose a student to play “teacher” and describe a letter. Let the student call on
classmates to find and identify the correct letter.
Marathon Letters
Materials: Uppercase and Lowercase Letter Cards Dry Erase Board and Marker Letter Sheet (optional)
Directions: I Do: Use a dry erase board and marker to review 2-3 (previously taught) unknown letters (NOTE: Choose letters based on student data). Model writing the letters on the board and describe them as you write. For example, “The letter “s” has 2 curves.” Next, set up the game by placing the letter cards face down on the table. Model how to pick a card from the top. Explain that if you name the letter correctly, you get to keep that card. If you do not name the letter correctly, the card goes back in the deck. The goal is to have the most cards at the end of the game.
We Do: 4. Go around in a circle and ask students to identify the letters.5. If a student names the letter correctly, he/she gets to keep that card. If the student does
not name the letter correctly the card goes back in the deck.6. The student that has the most cards at the end wins.
You Do: 4. Give each student an individual letter card deck or a sheet with letters in rows.5. Let them practice naming letters independently.
21
SOUPer Phonics Materials: Bowls (or cups) AND spoons for each student Small Alphabet Cards Directions: I Do: Say, “Today we will be making our own soup – but instead of using real ingredients, we’ll be using letters from the alphabet.” Spread some letters out on the table for everyone to see. Model the activity by saying a sound (for example /o/). Show them how you think through finding the letter that makes that sound. Then place the letter on your spoon and drop it into your bowl. We Do:
10. Pass out bowls and spoons to the students. Ask students to listen carefully as you say another letter sound.
11. Teacher and students will look through the letters until they find the correct one and drop it into their bowl.
12. Continue with 2 or 3 more letter sounds. You Do:
8. Ask students to listen carefully as you tell them some letter sounds. 9. Students will use their spoons to scoop the correct letters up and then drop them into their
bowls. 10. Continue with 5-6 more sounds. 11. Once all the ingredients have been added, have students say the sounds as they use their
spoons to scoop them up.
Letter Sound Boxes Materials: Sound Boxes laminated or inside sheet protector for each student and the teacher Dry Erase Markers 3 and 4 Phoneme Word List (see page 13) Directions: I Do:
• Begin by saying, “Today we are going to practice segmenting sounds and writing their letters to make words.” Show students the Sound Boxes.
• Say a word from the 3 Phoneme Word List (for example, let). Model how to say the word slowly, phoneme by phoneme (/l/…/e/…/t/) as you touch each box with your finger (in a left-to-right progression).
• Say the word again (let), sliding your finger below the boxes from left to right. • Repeat the word again, phoneme by phoneme, and write the corresponding letter of the
phoneme heard in each box from left to right. • Say the word again (let), sliding your finger below the boxes from left to right.
We Do: Pass out the materials to each student and repeat the same procedure. This time, the students will say the sounds and write the letters along with the teacher. Practice this together with several more words. You Do: Continue the same procedure, but this time the teacher should only provide the word. Assist students only when necessary.

Marathon Sounds
Materials: • Uppercase and Lowercase Letter Cards • Letter Sheet (optional) • Alphabet Picture Cards
Directions: I Do:
• Use Alphabet/Picture Cards to review 2-3 (previously taught) unknown letters/sounds (NOTE: Choose letters/sounds based on student data). Model how to name the letter, sound, and word on each card. For example, “The letter “s” says /s/ like in the word soup.”
• Next, set up the game by placing the letter cards (no pictures) face down on the table.
• Model how to pick a card from the top. Explain that if you name the sound correctly, you get to keep that card. If you do not name the sound correctly, the card goes back in the deck. The goal is to have the most cards at the end of the game.
We Do: • Go around in a circle and ask students to name the letter sounds. • If a student names the sound correctly, he/she gets to keep that card. If the
student does not name the sound correctly, the card goes back in the deck. • The student who has the most cards at the end wins.
You Do:
• Give each student an individual letter card deck or a sheet with letters in rows. • Let them practice naming sounds independently.
