    Rhyme

    What is it?

    It is the ability to match words that sound alike at the end. Rhyme awareness (discrimination) is the ability to
    determine whether two words rhyme. Rhyme production is the ability to produce a rhyming word for a given word.

    Importance: Children need to be able to hear and make connections between words that rhyme. Recognizing rhyme
    is foundational to recognizing word parts and beginning to analyze words.

    How do I teach it?

    You can embed rhyming into your everyday routines: morning message, read alouds, snack time, dressing, math,
    music, and transitions.

    Begin by focusing on Rhyme Awareness through the following activities:


    • When talking about words that rhyme you can use a statement such as “they rhyme because they sound the
    same at the end”.
    • When using read alouds and shared reading choose books, poems or charts that use rhyme so that students
    can begin to hear what rhyme sounds like. Explicitly point out when words rhyme. (Treahearne Kindergarten
    p. 142)
    • Expose children to nursery rhymes and rhyming songs (eg. Willaby Wallaby Woo).
    • Provide students with pictures of two objects, child or class says the names of each object on the card and
    says whether they rhyme or not. Child places cards on pocket under either ‘yes’ or ‘no’.

    Rhyme Production:
    • When using familiar Nursery Rhymes, say the nursery rhyme and leave some words out. eg.
    Twinkle, twinkle little star how I wonder what you _______?
    Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great ________. (A Sound Start, p. 57)
    • Read rhyming books. Emphasize the first word of a rhyme pair; let the class guess/fill in the second word of
    the rhyme pair. (A Sound Start, p. 58)
    • Play the ‘I’m thinking of’ game. The teacher gives a clue for a rhyming word. Eg. ‘I’m thinking of an animal
    that rhymes with cake, it crawls on the ground it’s a _____________.
