Colour a path through the maze by identifying the changing phoneme to create a continuous word chain.
Word Chain Mazes for Phomeme Manipulation
One key aspect of phonemic awareness is the ability to add, delete and substitute the sounds in words to generate new ones. Take the word ‘pin’ as an example. You change the ‘i’ to an ‘e’, and voila! You have the word ‘pen’!
The purpose of this set of worksheets is to allow students to practise identifying when the phonemes in a particular word have been manipulated (changed). Students start at the “Start Here” box. They colour the path through the word chain maze by looking for one letter that changes from the previous word to the next.
The download includes:
- 3 x word chain mazes
- an answer key.
