Phonological Awareness is the ability to hear, identify, and work with the sounds in spoken words.
Rhyme is identifying words with identical or similar sounds, especially with respect to the last syllable.
Example: Do these words rhyme? hat, mat. What words rhyme with bed?
Isolation is recognizing individual sounds in words.
Example: What is the first sound you hear in the word bed? What is the last sound you hear in hat?
Blending is putting sounds together to make words.
Example: What word am I saying /s/... /u/... /n/?
Segmentation is breaking words into their separate sounds.
Example: How many sounds do you hear in the word bat? Say each sound you hear in the word late.
