Pre-K Reading Strategies PowerPoint Presentations

Elkonin boxes are a great way to teach phonemic awareness to children who are not yet able to break apart, blend or otherwise manipulate words. This interactive PowerPoint uses adorable farm animals and coordinating backgrounds to engage children in the activity of breaking words into three separate phonemes. Each slide can be modeled and repeated as many times as needed until children have mastered the skill of phoneme segmentation. Click on the links below for more Elkonin activities!

VC words are simple, two-letter words made up of a vowel followed by a consonant, such as "at," "in," or "up." These words are beneficial for early readers because they introduce basic phonics skills, helping students recognize and blend vowel and consonant sounds. Mastering VC words builds a strong foundation for decoding more complex words, improves reading fluency, and boosts confidence in early literacy development.

Benefits
