- Phoneme isolation is the ability to separate a single sound from the other sounds in a word.
- Phoneme blending is when students are given the individual sounds and are able to blend them all together to say the word.
- Phoneme segmentation is the opposite of blending. It is when students are given a word and are able to stretch the word out into its individual phonemes.
- Great job!
- Phoneme manipulation consists of three things: the ability to add sounds, take away sounds, or substitute sounds.
