Classroom Activity: "Clapping Names" is an activity that can help build phonemic awareness skills by helping children become aware of syllables. Each child will be asked to clap and count the syllables in their name. Children who have a hard time with this activity, can ask the rest of the class to help clap out the syllables in their name (Adams et al., n.d.).

Classroom Activity: "Phonics Bingo" is an activity that can be done in the classroom to help building phonics skills. Children take turns picking a word from a stack of cards and calling out that word while the other students cross out the words that are called. The first student to fill in a column wins the round; the columns can be labeled by phonics patterns to help children recognize patterns and to reduce the amount of time they take looking for a word. Children can be placed into groups to help each other find a word if needed (Smith, 2022).

Classroom Activity: The "Echo Game" is an activity that can be done in the classroom to help build reading fluency skills. The teacher will read a sentence out of an age-appropriate book out loud using the appropriate expression and pausing when needed. Children will then mimic the teacher as they read the same sentence using the same expression. Children who have a hard time focusing can follow along with their finger as they are re-reading the sentence (Reading Rockets, n.d.).

Classroom Activity: "Word Wizard Box" is an activity that can help build a child's vocabulary. In this activity, students are asked to bring a new word they hear into the classroom to drop into a word wizard box. At the end of class, the teacher pulls out a word from the box and asks the students who wrote the word. The student who wrote the word must tell the class where they heard the word and how the word was used. This activity accommodates the needs of learners at all levels, as each student is given an opportunity to share words that they do not know (Colorin Colorado, n.d.).
