Back to Pre-requisites.
Words are made up of sounds that can be chunked together or separated out for learning purposes. One way to separate the sounds within a word is to focus on onset and rime. The onset is the initial sound or blend of consonant sounds in a word. The rime is the first vowel sound and all of the following sounds.
First example:
The photo above is a picture of a ball. The word ball can be divided into an onset and a rime. The onset is the initial sound represented by the letter "b". Say "ball" aloud, then say only the initial sound. That's the onset! The rime is the first vowel sound and all the following sounds; in the word "ball", the rime is represented by the letters "-all". Say "ball" aloud, then say only "-all". That's the rime!
Second example:
The photo above is a picture of a phone. What do you think is the onset of the word "phone"? Say "phone" aloud, then say only the initial sound. The onset is the initial sound represented by the letters "ph". That's the onset! What do you think is the rime of the word "phone"? Say "phone" aloud, then say only "-one". The rime is the first vowel sound and all the following sounds represented here by the letters "-one". That's the rime!
Please check your understanding of onset and rime by completing the following brief assessment. Record your answers on a piece of paper so you can check them against the Teacher feedback below.
