Teachers will learn the importance of phonemic awareness instruction and why it is an essential foundational skill. We'll explore key components of a phonemic awareness lesson, the progression of skills throughout a school year, and additional scaffolds teachers can use to support diverse student needs. You will leave with an understanding of how instruction targeting each skill builds a foundation for reading and how to effectively use hand motions and additional supports in phonemic awareness instruction.
