Blending and Segmenting Activitity

When beginning readers sound out words, they slowly say each sound in a word (c-a-t), and then say the sounds quickly together to "read" the word (cat). In reading, teachers call this blending because sounds are being blended together. Blending (combining sounds) and segmenting (separating sounds) are skills that are necessary for learning to read.

Below is one of blending and segmenting activity that I've carried out in the classroom. Love to share it with you all here.

Step 1  : Pupils are divided into 5 groups.

Step 2 : Each group is given sets of phoneme cards and a picture.

Step 3 : Pupils hang the phoneme cards around their necks and rearrange them

            to form word that stressing on the phoneme /z/.

Step 4 : Pupils blend and say the word together.

SETS OF PHONEME CARD AND PICTURE

PUPILS BLEND AND SAY THE WORD TOGETHER

zoo  z-oo  zoo

pizza  p-i-zz-a  pizza 

fizz  f-i-zz  fizz

buzz  b-u-zz  buzz 
 

zip  z-i-p  zip

Our first hotdog booklet ^_*

Hotdog booklet is a fun and easy book that you and your children can make. They can write about a special activity or anything they enjoy. It’s handy to take in the car or put in your pocket. What you need to prepare are just a piece of A4 paper, a pair of scissors and coloured pencils. I've made hotdog booklet with my Year 1 and Year 2 pupils during English period. They were excited with the joy to write or draw something inside the 6 pages and the cover of the booklet. The books are then displayed in such a way that encourages pupils to read them. They were encouraged to read each others books too.
Teacher can try using these books for revision or as an assessment for other subjects too. Try then have fun of learning.

 Step by step...Let make the hotdog booklet together!

Making Hotdog Booklet

The Hot Dog Booklet has a front and back cover and six pages inside. You can use any size paper. For a book from recycled materials, use the front panel of a grocery bag or any piece of paper with writing on only one side. The writing should be on the inside when you make the first fold. To make multiple copies of a book, make a blank book with plain copy paper (no writing on either side). Write and illustrate your book with black marker or pen. Open the sheet and lay it face down on a copier. Make as many copies as you want. Fold and cut each one.

1. Fold the paper in half the long way, like a hot dog. 

2. Open the paper and fold it in half the short way, like a hamburger.

3. Take one layer of paper, flip the edge back to meet the fold, and crease.
 

4. Turn the paper over, flip the edge of the paper back to meet the fold,
   and crease. 

5. Place the paper on the table so that you see a "W" when you look at 
   the end.

6. Cut the center of the W along the center fold. You'll be cutting through 
   two layers of paper and stopping at the cross fold. 

7. With your wrists above your fingers, hold the two halves of the hot dog 
   from the top.

8. Turn your wrists to the sides. You will have an open book with four 
   sections.

9. Bring three of the sections together. Fold the last section on top of the
   other three so that you have a flat book.
