Create-a-Picture Reward Screens
Pronunciations by a speech therapist and easy-to-grasp program tasks help children enhance their abilities to connect sounds with letters. After completing an activity sequence of 10, 20 or 30 pictures, children advance to one of six different Create-a-Picture reward screens. There they continue to develop phonics skills while having fun building a picture of their own.
Picture Phonics begins with Preschool Picture Play. This activity provides a first computer experience for young pre-readers. Pressing a letter key causes a picture and a word to appear. The word is pronounced by the speech therapist. It begins with the letter that was pressed. Children discover that each letter key is associated with a specific item and word. They see their favorite pictures and hear the words by remembering the right keys to press. To see the wagon, they must press W.
When children begin understanding that sounds are associated with various letters, they are ready for the Beginning Consonants activities. Activity #1 focuses on a single teacher-specified consonant. The child is shown a picture of an easily recognizable object, and its name is pronounced. The task is to indicate by answering "YES" or "NO" whether the specified consonant makes the beginning sound of the pictured object.
Activites 2, 3, and 4 become progressively more challenging. In Activity #2, the child is presented with a colorful picture and three large consonants. The name of the pictured object is pronounced. The child uses the Space Bar or mouse to select the consonant which represents the initial sound of the pictured object.
For Activity #3, the child uses the Space Bar or mouse to select which of four words identifies the picture. Children should focus on the beginning consonant to find the correct answer. In Activity #4, the student is shown a picture and given a word with the beginning consonant missing. The word is pronounced. The child enters the missing consonant from the keyboard to complete the word.
Flexible options allow teachers to choose which letters to focus on, or to review any specified set of letters.
Beginning Consonants includes the four main activities described above on this page. A similar range of activites are available for Ending Consonants, Beginning Blends and Digraphs, Ending Blends and Digraphs, Short Vowels, and Long Vowels. Vowels Long, Short, and Silent and three levels of difficulty within the Cumulative Phonics Review complete the program. Picture Phonics keeps students busy with a wide range of activities working productively on the road to becoming early readers.
