Description
1. Use this PPT activity board to teach blending sounds to beginning and/or struggling readers during distance learning.
2. Print and laminate to use it when blending sounds using sound cards in your classroom.
3. Blending sounds using this activity board will help your students understand the concept of blending a consonant and a vowel sounds into a syllable first and then move on to consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words.
4. Add a text box to the 2nd slide and create endless CV and CVC combinations.
5. Consonant /m/ is used intentionally in the example as this is the best consonant to start teaching blending/decoding from both reading and sound production perspective (it is a sonorant, has vowel like properties, and easily/naturally produced).
6. I highly recommend start with blending CV syllables with /m/, /n/, and /l/ consonant followed by various short vowels first and then adding a stop (/p/, /t/, /k/) at the end to form a CVC word and non-word.
7. Use non-words regularly when teaching how to blend and decode sounds. This is especially important for struggling readers and those who attempt to guess words instead of sounding them out.
8. You have my permission to post the pdf of this document in your google classroom for your students to view and download.
