Blending compound words is an essential literacy skill for students with disabilities, which can greatly improve their understanding of phonemic and print awareness! This set includes 95 worksheets, in 3 different styles to provide repetition with variety to help learners develop this ability to blend words.  Step 1: Read The teacher or instructor reads out the two words slowly, guiding the learner in repeating the word either in their head or out loud while combining the two words together. Step 2: Blend After they have blended the word, they can then proudly circle the correct picture. (feature pictures include both individual words along with the blended compound word.) Step 3: Evaluate If students find it difficult to understand how to combine sounds together, instructors should look out for patterns in their mistakes and model techniques that will help them understand how to blend sounds correctly. With practice, learners can become more confident and motivated in recognizing patterns within written language, paving a path towards better reading development.

In addition, teaching this skill gives students with disabilities an advantage in becoming independent readers. 5 Reasons Why You Should Incorporate Compound Words Into Your Reading Instruction Compound words help beginning readers recognize and accurately blend individual sounds. When exposed to compound words in the early stages of learning to read, students are more likely to develop strong foundational literacy skills. Compound words provide visual cues for the learner which makes it easier for them to understand how a word is constructed and each sound pronounced. Mastering the task of blending longer compounds words gives early readers a sense of accomplishment while learning to read.

This set is perfect for special education classrooms and beginning readers who are learning how to read. With 93 compound words included, this set is designed to help children develop their phonemic awareness skills and improve their reading abilities. Here are some of the benefits of using compound words in special education: Enhances Phonological Awareness: According to research, teaching compound words can enhance phonological awareness, which is an important skill for early reading development (Barton & Hargreaves, 2018). By breaking down compound words into two parts, children can learn how to identify and manipulate individual sounds in words. Improves Vocabulary: Learning compound words can also help children improve their vocabulary skills. As they learn about word families and patterns, they can apply this knowledge to other words they encounter in their reading (Cunningham & Stanovich, 1997). Increases Reading Fluency: When children are able to quickly recognize and decode compound words, it can increase their reading fluency. This means that they can read more smoothly and with greater comprehension (Wolf & Katzir-Cohen, 2001). Our Building Compound Word Task Cards come in two levels - one with pictures and words and another with just pictures. This makes it easy for teachers to differentiate instruction based on the needs of their students.
