Word Chaining Short Vowels
Word chaining is a powerful activity that helps students to sequence sounds in words. Students are asked to create words in s specified sequence, changing one sound at a time. You can do this two different ways:
Ask the student to spell the word cat. Students can use letter tiles or magnetic letters to spell the word. The teacher then guides them through the process. Change the letter c to the letter s. Then asks: What's the new word? The student then pushes one letter at a time as they sound out the word s-a-t and blend it back together sat. This activity supports students in blending/decoding.
Ask the students to build the word cat, then ask them to change one sound to make the new word sat. In this activity, students have to map the sounds in their heads to try to figure out which letter to swap out.
Word chaining helps to support students in recognizing and decoding patterns in words. The important thing to remember is to only change one sound/letter at a time.
