Abstract

Phonemic awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate the individual sounds in spoken words (Chard & Dickson, 1999). Research has shown that phonemic awareness is a strong indicator of a child's future reading success. If a child lacks phonemic awareness, he or she may be at risk for future reading failure. The explicit teaching of phonemic awareness in the early grades can increase the ease with which students acquire the important skill of reading. It is not difficult to incorporate activities emphasizing oral language into the classroom each day through formal and informal experiences. The following activities help promote phonemic awareness in students.
