Sounding and Blending (5 minutes)
Now we will work with words. I want you to sound and blend these words. The way that you do that is you look at each letter, make each sound, and then say them fast to make a word. I’ll sound and blend each one, and then you’ll do it.
Now that we’ve done them all together, I want you to sound and blend on your own. See how many of the words you can do in one minute. (MONITOR)
