The tasks involve identifying and underlining specified phonetic sounds in words, as well as reversing the order of letters to form new words. This exercise aids in the development of phonemic awareness and spelling abilities in students.
To address the tasks provided, we need to focus on the phonetic representation of letters in different words, as well as some playful engagement with spelling words backwards. Let's break down each task step by step:
Spell backwards: The phrase 'spell backwards' is asking us to write a word in reverse order. For example, if the word is 'forwards', spelled backwards it becomes 'sdrawrof'.
Underline the letter that spells [b] in the word 'behind'. Here, we target the letter 'b'.
Underline the letter that spells [t] in the word 'itself'. The target letter is 't'.
Underline the letter that spells [d] in the word 'wonderful'. We would underline the letter 'd'.
These exercises help students to recognize different phonetic sounds and how they are spelled within words, enhancing their phonemic awareness and spelling skills.
