Phonemic awareness describes the ability
to know, identify and manipulate the phonemes within words.
Phonemes are the smallest segments of sound,
contained within a word.
The list in this video includes
44 sounds, which have been divided into two sections,
the consonant sounds, and the vowel sounds.
Clear articulation of phonemes
in the early years of a child's literacy development
will support their ability to distinguish
between sounds, and support their understanding
of the relationship between letters and sounds,
when they begin the process of learning phonics.
