Join our sound detectives as we learn to blend phonemes (M, A, D, C, G, I, T) to build CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words and explore the magic of changing one letter at a time to create new words.
This video is perfect for beginning readers, homeschoolers, and educators looking to reinforce foundational reading skills in a playful way.
For Teachers & Parents:
This video is a great tool for a whole-class phonics lesson, a small group reading intervention, or a learning center activity. It provides a clear, step-by-step approach to blending sounds and a fun, engaging “sound game” to build phonemic awareness.
Common Core Curriculum Standards:
This video directly supports and teaches the following Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts:
- RF.K.2.D: Isolate and pronounce the initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in three-phoneme (consonant-vowel-consonant, or CVC) words.
- RF.K.3.A: Demonstrate basic knowledge of one-to-one letter-sound correspondences by producing the primary or most frequent sound for each consonant.
- RF.K.3.B: Associate the long and short sounds with the common spellings (graphemes) for the five major vowels.
- RF.1.2.C: Isolate and pronounce initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in spoken single-syllable words.
- RF.1.2.D: Add or substitute individual sounds (phonemes) in simple, one-syllable words to make new words.
