Phonemic Awareness activities involve learning to hear, segment, and blend the individual sounds in words. This is an essential building block in learning to read. One important part of Phonemic Awareness is identifying and creating rhyming words.
Phonics involves understanding the relationship between letters and sounds. Phonics skills require students to understand the sound for each letter or letter combination and be able to blend these sounds as they read to "sound out" words.
