Kindergarten Reading & Writing · World 6: Vowel Village · Level 42
Almost the Same
Tell apart words that differ by one letter.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 42
- Some words are almost the same. Cat and cot are different in just one letter.
- Cat has /a/ in the middle. Cot has /o/. One new letter makes a new word!
- The first letter can change too: hat, bat, rat.
- So when you read, look at every letter.
- Try it with a grown-up! Write map. Change one letter to make a new word: mop, cap, mat!
Georgia's K-12 English Language Arts Standards:
- K.F.P.2.e — Identify and distinguish between words that are spelled similarly by identifying the sounds of the letters that differ.
