Reveal tool and blending

[Sarah Carpenter]

Hi

To encourage my class to blend sounds together and not separate then into individual units of sound I prepare large words on a flipchart page and then use the reveal tool to reveal the word from left to right at varying speeds to hear them blending the phonemes - they love it when I drag it very slowly on certain phonemes!

I love your idea! Thanks for sharing.

With version 3, you can have the page automatically set to have the reveal tool active. That's great so kids can't PEEK at the hidden stuff before you click on the reveal tool. Before that, I had to put a reminder page to turn the reveal tool on before turning the page. Now I don't have to do that!
