Phoneme segmentation is the splitting apart and identification of all
individual sounds in a word. Have your child count the number of sounds in a
word. Say each word slowly as children listen for, tap out, and count the
number of sounds(phonemes) they hear. Remember to have children repeat the
individual sounds they hear, not letter names.

* sticks * small objects(watch, cup, leaf)

1. Place objects in a bag. Give each child a set of sticks.

for every sound they hear.
