More About This Resource
Strengthen first-grade students’ phonemic awareness skills with these Science of Reading-aligned, weekly phonemic awareness lesson plans. These NO PREP lesson plans focus on the phonemic awareness skills that make the biggest impact: segmenting, blending connecting graphemes to phonemes & isolating sounds.
This YEAR LONG curriculum includes everything you need to get started with phonemic awareness in your first grade classroom including a phonics scope and sequence, weekly lesson plans, student screeners, data trackers for ongoing progress monitoring, and picture card mats for word mapping! These lessons allow students to begin connecting phonemes to graphemes immediately. Use them as a warm-up in your small group to build foundational phonemic awareness skills!
This resource includes Beginning of the Year Student Screeners & Assessments so you know exactly where in the scope & sequence you should start with each student. The class data trackers allow you to continually track student data for ongoing progress monitoring. The weekly lesson plans walk you through exactly which skills to teach & the picture word mats build in opportunities for students to immediately connect phonemes to graphemes through word mapping.

I am SO GLAD I found this! I use these lessons every day with all of my small groups before we begin our small group focus skill lesson. It’s like a mini-Heggerty, and the kids love it! This is a great resource to reinforce skills and spiral review, too!
