This activity could be used with upper elementary students that are having trouble with blends, beginning and ending sounds.

Play a tape of sounds and rhyming words to help students become familiar with the correct pronounciation.

Working with rhyming words can be a fun activity with this age group. I have some magnetic pictures of rhyming words. This could also be used as a closing activity.

We use rhythm instruments to sound out rhyming words and make-up songs using rhyming words.
