Kindergarten
Students will be introduced to digraphs -sh, -ch, and -th. They will identify rhyming words and they will isolate the beginning and ending digraphs in words. Students will blend individual sounds into words and will chop sounds from whole words. They will add sounds to rimes to make new words and they will substitute parts of words to create new words.
1st Grade
Students will complete cloze sentences using rhyming words. They will isolate beginning blends in words such as -pr, -st, -gl, -dr, -tr, -bl. Students will blend individual sounds into words and they will "punch out" the final sounds in words. They will also add sounds to parts of words to create new words.
