Description: Phonemic awareness skills help build a strong foundation for reading and spelling success. This 36-card deck helps build phonemic awareness skills for beginning consonant blends. Specifically, this set builds upon phoneme manipulation or phoneme substitution skills. Students will substitute the consonant blend at the beginning of each one-syllable, short vowel word. Students must: - read/say the word at the top (ex. blab) - change the glued sound according to the letters given (ex. bl -> cr) - identify the new word by choosing the correct picture (ex. crab) After identifying the correct picture, students move to the next card. Cards are presented in random order, so students will come upon cards with a variety of consonant blends. ALL words in this deck contain SHORT VOWEL SOUNDS. Students will build their ability to identify (hear) sounds in words, as well as develop phoneme manipulation abilities, specifically substitutions (changing sounds in a word to create a new word). This activity aligns with the Science of Reading research and complements Orton-Gillingham lessons targeting consonant blends. This deck is great practice for students building phonological awareness skills while building early decoding and encoding skills.
