The ability to hear, recognize, and work with individual sounds, or phonemes, in spoken words is known as phonemic awareness.

Classroom activities

You want students to learn to break down sound by splitting up a word. The word ‘cat’, for example, can be boiled down to /c/ /a/ /t/.

Teaching students single sounds and then having them join together to create a word is called phoneme blending. A /d/ /o/ /g/, for example, becomes ‘dog’.

At Home Activities

Classroom activities

At Home Activities

The capacity to read a text accurately, rapidly, and expressively is known as fluency.

Classroom activities

Echo reading is a great way to work on fluency with a younger age group like Pre-K. The teacher can pick a super simple book that almost sings the story, like Brown Bear, Brown Bear and have the students repeat each page after the teacher has read.

At Home Activities

Reading at home the same way the teacher does by having the child parrot to story is a great way to get parents actively involved in their child's education as well as work on their fluency at home.
