Phonological Awareness
What is Phonics, Spelling, and Word Study?
What is phonics, spelling, and word study? Why is it important? And what does it look like in the classroom?
Elkonin Boxes | Classroom Strategy | Reading Rockets
Elkonin boxes build phonological awareness skills by segmenting words into individual sounds, or phonemes. To use Elkonin boxes, a child listens to a word and moves a token into a box for each sound or phoneme. In some cases different colored tokens may be used for consonants and vowels or just for each phoneme in the word.
