Where does it all begin? • environmental sounds • instrumental sounds • body percussion • Rhythm and rhyme • Alliteration • Voice sounds • Oral blending and segmenting Each aspect is divided into three strands. • Tuning into sounds (auditory discrimination) • Listening and remembering sounds (auditory memory and sequencing) • Talking about sounds (developing vocabulary and language comprehension). Activities within the seven aspects are designed to help children: • listen attentively; • enlarge their vocabulary; • speak confidently to adults and other children; • discriminate phonemes; • reproduce audibly the phonemes they hear, in order, all through the word; • use sound-talk to segment words into phonemes.
Sound Discrimination Children need to opportunity to hear and say sounds every day • Make your voice go down a slide • Make your voice bounce like a ball • Sound really disappointed • Hiss like a snake • Keep everyone quiet • Gently moo like a cow • Look astonished • Be a steam train • Buzz like a bumble bee • Be a clock
Why is it taught in this order? 1. A phoneme can be spelled using one letter: c-a-t / d-o-g / s-w-i-m 2. A phoneme can be spelled using 2 to 4 letters: h-i-ll / sh-i-p / d-augh-t-er 3. A phoneme can be spelled in multiple ways: d-ay / t-r-ai-n / l-a-k-e / b-r-ea-k / s-t-r-aigh-t 4. A spelling can represent more than one phoneme: g-r-ea-t / c-l-ea-n / b-r-ea-d (code overlap)
