Description: This fun and engaging deck of 20 cards will reinforce phonemic awareness skills in students as they work independently to identify the three sounds in a word. Each card includes a picture, and four smaller related pictures with audio phonemes attached. Three of the sounds are heard in the word while one is not. The student is required to drag the objects with the correct sound onto the larger picture to make them disappear. Audio is provided for all items and the first card provides audio directions. Immediate feedback is provided, and students will be automatically directed to the next card once the correct answer has been chosen. Phonemic awareness, or the ability to manipulate individual sounds or phonemes within words, is a critical skill for children to learn prior to decoding and spelling. Being able to successfully identify, substitute, and delete phonemes in words is a predictor of future reading success. Because phonemic awareness involves the sounds or phonemes in words, it does not include or require knowledge of alphabetic characters.
