Boost initial, medial, and final sound correspondence. Scholars practice decomposing word sounds using image cards and a worksheet. Learners cut out 10 three-letter images, sound them out, and glue them on the worksheet. Each word is missing one of the sounds. Pupils fill in the corresponding letter according to the sound they hear while sounding it out.
