A quick and inexpensive resource to make to encourage children to blend sounds together to form words. I would start by getting children to identify the sounds and practise blending them together on the side with just the letters showing. They can then lift the flaps in order from left to right, again saying the sounds, to reveal the pictures and check whether they were correct. If your child is struggling with blending one of the things you can try is starting the word with continuous consonant

Blending sounds together teaches learners how words are sounded out, which will help them to decode long and unfamiliar words when they’re reading. This time i used playdough for blending which involves touching each sound. #creativefunghr #kajalgogini #phonics #phonicsfun #phonicsgames #phonicsforkids #phonicsclass #blending #creativefunghr #art #preschoolart #preschoolfun #preschoolactivities #preschoolteacher #preschool #preschoolplay #preschooler #play #kids #kidsfun #preschool #preschooler
