Teaching Children Blended Consonant Sounds: Part 2

After your child has mastered blends, it would be cool to make a book or two using a lot of blends, using the words that you're working on. After they have been working with blends for a few days, maybe a week, maybe a couple of weeks we can work on ending blends. It's the same idea only at the end of the word. The ending blends that I've isolated are lk, lt, nd, and ng. And again have your child say those four sounds before they start working on the word. Again, there are three sounds; m-i-lk, m-i-lk. Notice I started to put a vowel at the end of my m-m I don't want to say mm, milk and the lk could almost be one sound. Again work through them, come up with as many as you can. Notice we have and and end which are three letter words, but they have the same idea, missing the consonant in the front. We have two non-phonetic words that we can add to this; walk and talk. Be careful not to put these on your list because notice the A is not making an aa sound and we're only teaching vowels in the beginning that make the short vowel sounds. A is sounding like an O in this case. So these would be in our non-phonetic words and we'll put them with our others to be practiced, to be memorized, not sound it out and there we have it.
