Students will be guided to match the beginning sounds of each picture to a letter card. The activity will build one to one letter sound correspondence.
In this lesson, students will learn how to figure out a tricky word by trying out both sounds of the vowel and listening to see which word sounds right or makes sense. This lesson is part of the 'Unit of Study: Monitoring for Meaning: Using Multiple Strategies to Decode' and is found on page 38.

In this form of Bingo, instead of using chips to mark off numbers on a playing card students use recognizable signs, logos, and labels as part of a game that promotes literacy learning. By playing this form of Bingo, emerging readers in kindergarten and first grade are encouraged to practice their reading skills using a variety of environmental print materials.
Students engage in games and chants to recognize the same sounds in different words. Students match objects with the same beginning or ending sound, identify whether a given sound occurs at the beginning or ending of a word, and connect phonemes with graphemes.
This worksheet was created as a supplemental resource for middle sound fluency instruction. Visuals have been provided to offer additional guidance.
Students will label items found in a classroom.
In this interactive, students will help Clifford sort letters by matching the first letter in each word to the correct box.
Students will make a list of new words by adding and switching vowels; i.e. cat to cot; net to nut; and bet to bat.
Students will look, listen, and learn! Students will look at a picture and find words that begin with the same sound as the picture. When they find a match it will create a word list.
Using Construct-a-Word, students learn letter-sound correspondence by combining a beginning letter or blend to a word ending to create words.
In this leson, students begin exploring sounds through a read-aloud of Dr. Seuss's, Mr. Brown Can MOO! Can You? They then play with the sounds in their classroom, creating words that capture what they hear. Next, they explore sounds from selected websites and record what they hear on a chart, using spelling strategies to help them. Finally, students create original cinquain poems using sound words.
As a way to support teachers with English Language Arts (ELA) instruction during the pandemic, the NCDPI ELA team created choice boards featuring standards-aligned ELA activities.The intended purpose of these choice boards is to provide a way for students to continue standards-based learning while schools are closed. Each activity can be adapted and modified to be completed with or without the use of digital tools. Many activities can also be repeated with different texts. These standards-based activities are meant to be a low-stress approach to reinforcing and enriching the skills learned during the 2019-2020 school year. The choice boards are to be used flexibly by teachers, parents, and students in order to meet the unique needs of each learner.Exploration activities are provided for a more self-directed or guided approach to independent learning for students. These activities and sites should be used as a way to explore concepts, topics, skills, and social and emotional competencies that interest the learner.

This lesson uses familiar words from The Gingerbread Man to help early readers learn letter–sound correspondence. Students begin with a teacher-conducted shared reading of the story. As students listen, they read the words in the refrain along with the teacher. After the third hearing of the story, students choose their favorite words from the story and identify the sounds that the letters make in the words. Students conclude the lesson by using the newly learned words in an online story of their own creation.
