In this one-time rhyming class, I will lead learners through activities and games to help strengthen their ability to hear and produce rhyming words. Rhyming is an important part of developing phonological awareness for young learners on their way to becoming confident readers. While students are having fun playing games and completing rhyming activities, important literacy work is taking place! Through rhyme, students begin to recognize word families (mat, cat, sat, hat, rat) while also listening to word parts and noticing the different sounds that make up a word. I use fun, bright slides, props, interactive elements, and games to keep young learners engaged and having fun in class!

The games and activities in this class are designed to help students:
1. Understand that rhyming words have the same ending sound
2. Listen to spoken words (with picture/prop support) and identify words that rhyme
3. Differentiate between words that rhyme and words that do not rhyme
4. Produce rhyming words
