How can you find the words in a spoken sentence?
Clap once for each word you hear. 'I like cats' is three claps.
orlandoschool.comIs this true? Football is a compound word you can break into foot and ball.
Yes. Show two pictures. Put them together. That is a compound word, not a phoneme lesson.
orlandoschool.comWhat is a syllable?
A beat in a word. You can drum it: but-ter-fly.. Drum the beats. Stop before segmenting phonemes.
orlandoschool.comWhat is onset-rime with a picture?
The adult says /c/ + /at/. The child points to the cat picture. That is the last oral step before Kindergarten phonemes.
orlandoschool.comIs this true? VPK children should decode CVC words like map and sit.
No. Decoding CVC is Kindergarten. VPK stops at words, syllables, and onset-rime.
