Learn effective strategies for teaching reading blending to children aged 8, enhancing their phonemic awareness and reading skills.
Blending is a reading technique where you take individual sounds (called phonemes) and put them together to form words. For example, if you have the sounds /c/, /a/, and /t/, blending them gives you the word 'cat'.
Remember, the goal is to help them hear the sounds in words and blend them together smoothly. With practice and fun activities, they'll become more confident in their reading skills!
