Phonemic Awareness

Good book. Easy to use. Lots of ideas for phonemic awareness activities that can be fit in when you have a few minutes to spare. Margo Ross - kindergarten teacher

This book rates more than 5 stars!

I am a reading specialist, and our school is just beginning a new intervention program for phonics. This book is indispensable for teaching phonological awareness. It has loads of activities for all the "rungs on the ladder" of the phonemic awareness continuum. These include activities for: Words in a Sentence, Syllables, Rhyming, counting phonemes, etc. Blackline masters for pictures, etc., used in the activities are included. It also includes activities for teaching phonics (phonological awareness does not include printed letters, but phonics does include print.) I highly recommend this book for teaching beginning reading skills.

Phonics Awareness

This is an excellent resource for k-1 teachers. Full of engaging and thought provoking activities for young children. It makes learning fun!!

Full of great ideas

This book is full of great ideas for literacy centers in the primary classroom. There are great pictures and games that several students can do on their own. This is a must have resource for those that teach early reading.

Hours of Fun with Words!

This is one of those books I use over and over again with my K-3 reading groups. The kids love the activities and I am happy with what they are learning. To be good readers, children need to be able to hear the sounds that make words, change sounds in words to make new words, and see the relationship between sounds. This book supplies you with over 60 exciting lessons for just that. The lessons are easy to do and many you can do without any materials. The book does supply you with the needed reproducible manipulatives, picture cards, and word lists One of my favorite and easy activities in the book is called Rhyme Away. You draw the given picture on the board and erase parts of the picture as you read clues to the class. The students have to finish a rhyme phrase and then erase that picture on the board. That is a Level 1 activity in the book. The activities range in Levels from 1 to 5. There are activities for rhyming, blending, syllable counting, sound matching, phoneme isolation, phoneme counting, phoneme substitution, phoneme deletion, and more!This book gets my full approval and I am so happy to have found it.
