But what exactly is phonics...Blends are... R blends, L blends, and S blends

 Hey there, fellow teacher! Welcome to Me The Helping Teacher!

If you're like me, then you know that phonics is the bread and butter of early reading instruction. Without a strong grasp of phonics, our students are likely to struggle with everything from spelling to comprehension. But what exactly is phonics, you might ask? Well, it's simple. Phonics is the study of the sounds that make up words. By teaching our students to recognize these sounds, we can help them become more confident and proficient readers.

Of course, not all sounds are created equal. Some sounds, like "b" and "m," are easy enough to identify on their own. But what about those tricky sounds that require more than one letter to create? That's where blends come in. Blends are two or more consonant sounds that are pronounced together, such as "br," "fl," or "sp." By learning to recognize and produce these blends, our students can become even more skilled at reading and spelling.

So, how can we help our students master these tricky blends? That's where my new Phonics Blends Activity Pack comes in! With three separate worksheets focused on R blends, L blends, and S blends, this pack has everything you need to make phonics fun and engaging for your students. Whether you're a seasoned teacher or a newbie, this pack is the perfect tool to help your students take their phonics skills to the next level.
