BREAK-IT-APART GAME
Today we will take one step forward for each sound in a word. Model for your child with the word "cat." Take a step for /c/, one for /a/ and one for /t/. Have your child repeat the actions with the same word. Then give him or her the following words to step and break independently. However, if your child is struggling, you can go back to modeling each word and having your child copy.
Top, pet, dot, mat, pad, red, sock
Feel free to extend the game with your own words!
