Listen "Consonant Blends & Sight Words for Reading Development | Episode 86"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textTD Flenaugh discusses strategies for teaching children to read fluently, focusing on consonant blends (CR and FR) and sight words from the Dolch 1000 word list. The episode emphasizes the importance of blending sounds in words and using decodable text to help children recognize patterns and improve reading fluency. Practical activities include oral blending and segmenting of words, letter-sound correspondence, and using pictures to aid second language learners. The passage "Fun at the Crab Pit" is used to illustrate these techniques, encouraging children to sound out words and read with expression. The goal is to provide children with the skills and confidence to read independently.Support the showWe drop new episodes every Saturday at 5 p.m. Pacific Time.
