Practice Manipulating Onsets and Rimes
Use Words You Know to Make New Words
Students use a Power Word and initial letters to create both real and nonsense words and
record them on the t-chart. Have students work in teams. Set a timer. Give prizes to the
team with the most words in the correct columns.
Flash Cards Make flash cards for every -all word. Have students drill, practice, and play a variety of
games (memory, go fish, etc). Play fast. Adrenaline helps encode memory.
Nursery Rhymes/Silly Stories
Read, write, and sing nursery rhymes and other rhyming texts.
Rhyme BoggleWrite down as many real words as you can think of in one minute. GO! At end of minute,
each player reads their words as others cross out the ones they also had. Everyone gets one
point for each word no one else had.
Letter/Sound Switch
Start with a 3 letter word. Change one letter to make a new word. Continue until you
can’t do any more. See who can make the most.

Sight Word Chunk:
Sample “all” Rhyme
Go to bed late,Stay very small.Go to bed early,Grow very tall.
1B Zone 1
Problems• Doesn’t know sight words (student may need to move back to Green levels)
• Can’t hear/make rhymes (see oral rhyming practice in Lesson 3)
• Can’t manipulate the rime/onset (see below)
• Can manipulate the rime/onset when the onset is a single initial consonant, but not when it is a
blend or digraph (see below).
30
Lesson 2: onset + -all (rime)Guided Reading: Who Can I Call?
Goal: Today you will be able to read a 1B book where all the hard words are built from the word all.
Begin with the book cover.START by seeing what students can do without your help.
If students hit an -all word they don’t know, say:
• Can you find a word you know inside? Use your finger(s) to cover up the beginning/end of the word.
• Add the first letter sound.
Coaching Tip
Every word in this book is either:• a 1G/2G Power
Word• clued by a
picture, or• a one-syllable
word built from all (call, wall, ball).
