What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students break familiar words into sounds, syllables, letters, or meaningful parts. They blend those parts to build words and connect each word to a meaning.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A student can break sun into /s/, /u/, and /n/, then blend the sounds to read the word. They can build familiar words and explain what each word means.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may say letter names instead of the sounds they represent. They may omit sounds, reverse letters, or guess a word from its picture or first letter.
How to Assess It
- Give each student the letter tiles s, u, and n. Ask the student to build sun, say each sound, blend the word, and match it to a picture.
