Blending and Segmenting
I will add more about activities and teaching
strategies throughout the year. Below, however, you will see some of
the homework pages that I send at various times of the year for
practice with blending and segmenting words. One page is more for
teaching the child to use "sight word chunks" to help with sounding
out big words. I used these for homework assignments (except for the
"sight word chunks" page, which we did in centers first), but these
could be used in small-group instruction, as word lists to help you
meet varying student levels during blending instruction, etc. I find
that I do a better job in leading blending and segmenting activities
-- in whole-group or small-group -- if I prepare a list of words in
advance. I am going to work on more of these for the current school
year.

For the "sight word chunks" blending page, I used
this website to help me generate words. You type in the word you
want to use (for example, "and"), and it will generate a long list
of words that include "and" inside them.
