• Synthetic Phonics strategy: Synthetic phonics is about synthesizing words from individual sounds, and this an effective strategy for teaching children to read. In fact, this approach is extremely sequential, logical, and super simple; that it's even possible to use it to teach children as young as 2 and 3 years old to read phonetically. This strategy takes into account each phoneme in words, in every position is important. Synthetic Phonics places much emphasis on the teachers pronouncing the phonemes correctly. And some strategies we can mention include:

 

• Word Maker

Divide paper or plastic plates into several segments with a permanent marker. Write various word-ending phonograms into the divided segments of the paper plate. Place beginning parts of words on clothespins. Ask students to match beginning parts of a word with endings to create a word by attaching the clothespin to the paper plate. Place the answers on the back of the plate so the students can easily check their accuracy by themselves. This activity makes a good “center” activity for young students.  

• Blending Letters

To help students understand the concept of blending letters to form a word, display a large play slide on a pocket chart or on the wall. Use sticky notes with the individual phonemes and display them from top to bottom on the slide. Show students how the letters slide down the slide together as a group to form the blended word at the bottom of the slide (Johns & Lenski, 2001). Ask students to blend new words with letter tiles and their own paper slides at their desks.
