Phonological Awareness Activities for Learning (P.A.A.L) Digital Book (E-Product)

This book is intended for one person's use with his or her students/children only and may not be passed along to others. Please see Download Instructions & Terms and Conditions below before purchasing this product.

• Published by Reading with TLC, this 74-page book is filled with unique, quick, and easy activities to train phonological awareness and phonemic awareness without lots of preparation time or lesson planning. Created by veteran speech language pathologist Karen Bullock, while working in the school setting, this popular research-based activity book is geared toward preschool through early    primary grades. This resource provides effective activities that improve phonological awareness skills in struggling students, while also strengthening those skills in typically developing readers.

• Get your students ready for reading with these engaging, and often humorous, activities that are aligned with the Science of Reading. Features activities sorted into four categories: Rhyming Awareness, Sound Blending Awareness, Sound Segmentation Awareness, and The Vocabulary of Reading. Along with a wealth of fun activities that delight children, each section includes general information describing why that particular skill instruction is important, how it helps students develop critical skills, and the research rationale. Images of some of the activities are also provided. 

• These activities will have students moving and laughing while learning. Because many of the activities involve manipulation of sounds to change spoken words, students are often asked to respond to, or produce, silly sounding real or nonsense words. Many of the activities are performed with no letters, although some include the use of letters. As the author states, these activities “can facilitate the creation of an auditorily alive classroom and bring phonological awareness to all students.”

• To strengthen rhyming, sound blending, and sound segmenting skills, examples of activities in this book develop the ability to identify number and sequence of words in sentences, identification of syllables, and recognition of beginnings and endings of words. Strengthening print awareness and the language of reading, specific activities develop recognition of left to right sequencing of letters for reading, and comprehension of words such as “first,” “last,” “middle,” “same,” “different,” “before,” “after,” and “next.”
