Standards

CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.2a

Learning objective

Students will be able to identify and produce simple rhyming words.

Introduction

Have students look at the words on the board: Clock, lock, and sock. Ask what those words have in common. Point out that all of those words end with the "-ock" sound.

Instruction

Explain that words that rhyme have the same ending sounds. See if students can think of words that rhyme with "bat" and "cat." Students then read a word and write a rhyming word in the empty box. For example, "red" rhymes with "bed." Next, students will think of words that rhyme with "jet" by filling in the empty boxes to complete the rhyming words. Explain that not all rhyming words end in the same letters. They just need to end in the same sound. Students will then drag words to the box with the correct rhyming word.

Quiz

Students respond to 10 questions. They will identify rhyming words and drag words to make a rhyme.

Closing

Students drag to match the rhyming words and place them in the correct boxes.
