On Wednesday mornings small groups of children in need of phonemic awareness instruction met to work on blending sounds on a soundboard. The children made words on their boards where only one sound changes at a time. This fall and spring they worked on CVC words with initial and final blends, (words like stamp, spill, gift) and silent-e words (such as like, hope, cape, tune, eve) To practice these skills they played games such as Blend Go Fish, Blend Bingo, Silent-e Go Fish, Under the Sea, and Pirate Keys. Once a week the children were also part of a dictation class where they had to write words or sentences using these spelling patterns.
