What skill is demonstrated when children listen to a sequence of separately spoken phonemes and then combine the phonemes to form a word?

  1. Phoneme blending

  2. Phoneme counting

  3. Phoneme deletion

  4. Phoneme substitution

The correct answer is: Phoneme blending

When children listen to a sequence of separately spoken phonemes and then combine these phonemes to form a word, they are demonstrating the skill of phoneme blending. Phoneme blending is an essential skill in literacy development as it helps children understand how individual sounds come together to form words. This skill is crucial for decoding and reading fluency. Phoneme counting involves identifying the number of phonemes in a word, while phoneme deletion and substitution involve manipulating phonemes within words, which are different skills from phoneme blending.
