Learning Objectives

Students will be able to identify and manipulate consonant ending blends.

Introduction

(5 minutes)
  • Tell the students that today they will be learning about consonant ending blends.
  • Explain that consonants are letters in the alphabet that are not vowels.

Explicit Instruction/Teacher Modeling

(10 minutes)
  • Show the students the Consonant Endings video.
  • List NK, LK, NT, MP, and ND on the board.
  • Have your students list the words they heard in the video.
  • Ask the students if they know any words that rhyme with the words listed.
  • Categorize the words according to their consonant endings.
  • Some examples may include drink, silk, sent, camp, and land.

Guided Practice/Interactive Modeling

(10 minutes)
  • Play hangman as a class or have 2 groups compete against each other.
  • Use words that have already been discussed in the lesson.
  • Write the ending blend in the word so that students just have to guess the vowel and beginning consonant to complete the word.

  • Read the instructions to the students.
