PHONEME ISOLATION games and activities<br />
ACTIVITY 9: Clip the initial sound<br />
Use this activity when children are able to link the letter symbol and the sound.<br />
Cards are provided on pages 119—123.<br />
The children will also need one peg each.<br />
Each card has a picture of an object. Beneath the<br />
picture are three letters.<br />
The children say the name of the object,<br />
then the sound they hear at the beginning<br />
of the word.<br />
They look at the letters beneath the picture and clip<br />
a peg on the letter symbol for the initial sound in the<br />
word.<br />
Words depicted on cards:<br />
1—scissors, astronaut, igloo, tomato, pencil, nurse<br />
2—cake, kettle, elbow, hand, rhinoceros, mermaid<br />
3—dragonfly, garden, orange, umbrella, lollipop, fork<br />
4—banana, jeep, zoo, helicopter, whale, violin<br />
5—yawn, quiet, chair, shark, thorn, them<br />
• Isolate the initial sound in words<br />
ACTIVITY 10: Beginning sounds<br />
Use the game boards on pages 124—131 for this activity.<br />
Each game board is for use by two players.<br />
Each player will require one dice and 8 coloured<br />
counters/markers. The colour of each player’s<br />
counters should differ.<br />
The aim of this game is for players to take turns to<br />
identify pictures with the same beginning sound.<br />
If a player cannot find a matching pair, he/she<br />
misses a turn.<br />
There is no winner in this game—players work<br />
together to cover the game board with counters.<br />
Before playing the game, name all the objects on<br />
the game board.<br />
Each initial sound and matching objects are listed<br />
at the bottom of each game board.<br />
