This lesson plan consists of three 60-minute sessions focused on teaching first graders how to blend sounds. The lessons progress from introducing the concept of sound blending, to forming words, and finally, to using blended sounds in sentences. Interactive activities and hands-on practice help reinforce learning and ensure mastery of blending sounds.
This lesson is designed to introduce first grade students to the concept of blending sounds to form simple words. Students will learn how individual consonant and vowel sounds can be combined to form consonant-vowel combinations (e.g., 'ba', 'de', 'mi'). The lesson will include a variety of interactive activities to reinforce the blending concept and engage students in practicing the newly learned skill.
Lesson 2: Blending to Form Words

In this week's lesson, students will build on their existing knowledge of sound blending. They will engage in interactive activities to enhance their ability to blend sounds to form simple words, which will further contribute to their reading and writing skills.
Lesson 3: Mastering Blending with Words and Sentences
Overview
This lesson aims to build on students' foundational skills in blending sounds to form words, focusing specifically on more complex word structures. Students will practice blending consonant clusters and vowel combinations, and then apply their skills by using these words in simple sentences. The lesson incorporates interactive activities to engage students and reinforce their learning.
