Put It Together

FSF - Phonemic Awareness Segment and Blend Onset-Rimes

The purpose of this activity is for students to practice blending an onset and a rime to say a word.

Warm Up

We're going to play a game where you will make a word by combining the two word parts that I say.

I'll say the beginning part and then pause; then I'll say the ending part of the word. You'll put the two parts together to make a word.

Listen to me do the first one. The word begins with /m/ and ends with /op/. Let's say the sounds together: /m/…/op/, /m/ /op/, mop.

Say it with me. Say /m/ (pause). Now say /op/. Say them together fast: /m/ /op/. What word is that?

Model for the student.

Let's try one together. The next word is /h/.../ouse/. Now say these parts together: /h/ /ouse/. What's the word?

If Correct: Good. When we put /h/ /ouse/ together, it makes the word "house."

If Incorrect: Let's try it together, slowly. Say /h/ and pause. Now say /ouse/. Say them without a pause: /h/ /ouse/. What word does it make?

Try to get a correct response before proceeding.

Now it's your turn. The next word begins with /t/ and ends with /ap/. What's the word?

If Correct: You're ready to try the next word on your own.

If Incorrect: Try it with me. Say /t/ (pause). Now say /ap/. Say them together: /t/ /ap/. What's the word?

Correct: tap

If incorrect, go back to an easier activity.
