Teaching approaches
Gakuva’s recommended starting approach is selected. You can still compare every option.
1 approach
Rhyming words share the same ending sound chunk. Cat, bat, and mat rhyme because they all end with /at/. Dog does not rhyme with cat.
Spend about 10 minutes matching rhyme pairs from ready cards, then making one new rhyme.
