PHONEME SEGMENTATION GAMES AND ACTIVITIES<br />
• Stretch out words • Stretch out words<br />
ACTIVITY 3: ‘Stretched out’ word cards<br />
Use the divided cards on pages 17–<strong>23</strong> to play this game.<br />
Each card must be cut up into the correct number of<br />
phonemes in the word. Cards should be printed onto<br />
cardboard and laminated for durability before using.<br />
The cards provided are divided into the number of<br />
phonemes in each word represented by an image.<br />
The cards for words with the same number of phonemes<br />
should be stored together in separate ziplock bags. One<br />
bag will contain pictures for all the words with 2 phonemes,<br />
another will hold all the 3-phoneme words, a third will hold all<br />
the 4-phoneme words and the last will hold the 5-phoneme<br />
words.<br />
The game may be played individually, in pairs or in small groups.<br />
The cut-apart cards are mixed up and the child/children move the parts together to<br />
complete the picture and say the complete word. Then they move the pieces apart<br />
segmenting the word. Ensure the children point to each part (sound) as they say the<br />
sounds that make up each word.<br />
Words are provided for more capable children who want to read them.<br />
ACTIVITY 4: Phoneme jumping (or hopping)<br />
Place three different-coloured small hoops on the floor or ground. Say a two- or threephoneme<br />
word aloud and have each child say the sounds they hear in the word as they<br />
jump into each hoop.<br />
Different-coloured hoops tell the child that each sound is a different one.<br />
Select from the words on the phoneme word list on page 24.<br />
This activity is good to use with words that are difficult to represent visually, such as am,<br />
at, is etc.<br />
Progress to four- or five-phoneme<br />
words when the children have<br />
demonstrated their capability.<br />
