By - Renee Dye
Subject - Language Arts

Objective: Each student will be introduced to rhyming sounds by using poetry.

Material List: Index Cards
Markers
blackboard

Procedure: Read poem to class, while allowing them to throw out examples. Continue the idea stage by placing them in groups of 4 based on ending sound (op, at, ock, ad, ot, etc.) Give each group index cards with the ending sound pre-printed. Have students write the beginning sounds to make rhyming words. Give an example, such as: map, nap, cap, trap
