Troll talk II: Phonemes From Phonemes Objective To reinforce students' ability to synthesize words from their separate phonemes. Activity : This activity in analogous to that presented in 6E: Troll Talk I: Syllables, except that the troll describes his treats phoneme by phoneme instead of syllable by syllable. Everyone sits in a circle, and the teacher tells a tale:Once upon a time, there was a kind, little troll who loved to give people presents. The only catch was that the troll always wanted people to know what their present was before giving it to them. The problem was that the little troll had a very strange way of talking. If he was going to tell a child that the present was a bike, he would say "b–i–k." Not until the child has guessed what the present was would he be completely happy. Now I will pretend to be the troll. I will name a surprise for one of you. When you figure out what it is, it will be your turn.Choose one child and pronounce the name of the present, phoneme by phoneme. When the child guesses the word, she or he is to name a present for somebody else. Work up from short (two- and three-sound) words to longer ones as the children become more adept at hearing the sounds. It is best to limit the game to only four or five children on any given day or it becomes a bit long. Variation Each child gets from one to three "secret" pictures. They may now give the things in the pictures as "presents," one thing at a time, to another child by sounding out the word. The child who receives the present has to guess what it is before she or he can have the picture.

Use syllable counting with young children to sound out

Kids will learn syllables and hear phonemes through a clapping game using students' names

"How to play: Sit in a circle with your students. I have a little stuffed bee that the kids love to hold. You could also use a printable bumble bee. The teacher begins the chant and walks around to a child: Teacher: “Bippity Boppity Bumble Bee, Will You Say Your Name For Me?” The child responds, “Jennifer.” Teacher: ” Let’s all say it.” And the class says her name out loud, while clapping once for each syllable. Teacher: “Let’s all whisper it.” And the class whispers her name, while quiet-clapping the syllables again, once per syllable. Teacher and class: “Bippity Boppity Bumble Bee, Thank You For Saying Your Name For Me!” Repeat with another student and his/her name. As students become familiar with the game, you can allow students to take on the “teacher” role"
