Teaching Strategies |
| Spin and Say |
| Using an All-Turn-it Spinner, customize the overlay with phonemes. Choose a target syllable rime that forms words using the phonemes on the overlay (e.g. at, ook). The student selects a phoneme by activating the All-Turn-it Spinner. The teacher says the word created and then the student demonstrates comprehension by matching the new word with a picture or object. |
 |
| Variation: Use large foam dice with letters to select the phoneme. |
| Variation: Use two spinners, one for onset and the other for rime. Make words and determine if they are real words or nonsense words. |
| Onset and Rime Wheel |
| Use poster board for the back of pictures and/or phonemes. Use foam core to make a large wheel. Cut a square in the foam core so that when it turns, the picture/phoneme on the poster board will be seen. Place a phonogram on the foam core (e.g. ill, ook) and turn the wheel to make new words. Use the new words to write a story using a one sheet book or make it digital. |
| Cloze for Onset/Rime |
Make simple rhyming sentences with two lines. When you say the second line, leave off the final rhyming word. The student can add the missing word using a multi-message speech device or the iClick-iTalk software. For example: |
*Use the iClick - iTalk Software to make activities to learn onset/rime. |
Onset and RimeAn onset is the initial sound of a word and the rime is the vowel/consonant (VC) at the end. This technique is used when teaching word families or phonograms.
