Students in a kindergarten class are learning to blend word parts. Which of the following phonemic skills is most appropriate for the teacher to work on next?

A kindergarten teacher slowly says a child's name. The teacher then claps once for each syllable as she repeats the child's name (e.g., "lor-na").

The father of a preschool child asks the teacher how he can help develop the child's phonemic awareness. The teacher could best respond by-
