40 Independent Phonemic Awareness Centers for Emergent Readers
Getting Ready to Read directly addresses the phonological needs of preschool students, emergent readers, English-language learners, and other students who have limited exposure to oral language. This resource includes 40 independent center activities that will help students learn how to analyze and apply the five levels of phonemic awareness (rhythm and rhyme, parts of a word, sequence of sounds, separation of sounds, and manipulation of sounds) in isolation before applying the levels to written language. Each easy-to-prepare activity is presented pictorially for children to follow and in written form for parents when you send the activity home for extra practice.
