The document provides guidance for teachers on segmenting and blending words during phonics instruction. It outlines 9 activities for students to practice segmenting words into sounds and blending sounds to form words. The activities use methods like Elkonin boxes, jumping on letters, matching sounds to pictures, wearing sound necklaces, rolling phonics cubes, and baseball-style blending games to reinforce students' understanding of segmenting and blending skills. Teachers are advised to start with segmenting practice and provide blending instruction after to help students read words.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Blending and segmenting notes
1. Segmenting and Blending Notes for Teachers
The second stage/phase of teaching phonics is to teach students to segment and blend
words.
Segmenting
Segmenting means breaking the words up into their component sounds. For
example, the word ‘blue’ has three sounds /b/, /l/ and /u:/. The two letters ue are
one sound. The word cat also has three sounds /k/ /æ/ and /t/. The word shop also
has three sounds /ʃ/, /ɒ/ and /p/. The letters sh are one sound.
Students need to learn to look at a word and immediately know exactly how many
sounds there are in that word and what those sounds are (segmenting).
Students can do this only when they know the sounds well.
Students must be guided by the teacher and the teacher must know which sounds
the students know and which they do not know. For example, the word blue
contains the sound /u:/ which is not taught to year 1 students. Therefore, year 1
students cannot segment the word blue and so in year 1 blue is a sight word.
In the beginning the teacher guides the students by helping them to segment. The
teacher might start out by segmenting words for the students, while doing the action
for each sound. The teacher might progress to saying the word very slowly and
exaggerating or elongating the sounds while doing the actions. The teacher may
then say the word normally but tell students how many sounds there are in the
word.
Ultimately, through whatever means necessary, the students should be able to hear
a word spoken normally and know exactly how many sounds in the word and what
those sounds are.
Blending
Blending is when students combine (blend) sounds together in a logical way to read
a word.
Students must be taught exactly how to blend sounds, that is, they must be taught
steps.
Students must learn that when blending sounds it is necessary to group certain
sounds together is stages so that the blended sounds begin to sound like the word.
Therefore, students must learn which sounds go together.
For example, the word cat can be read two ways
1. c + a = ca. 2. a + t = at
ca + t = cat c + at = cat
1
2. SEGMENTING AND BLENDING ACTIVITIES
Activity 1 - Elkonin boxes
Aim: Students begin to learn to see and hear how many sounds there are in words.
Aim: Students understanding that some sounds have more than one letter is reinforced.
Teacher gives students laminated Elkonin boxes, a whiteboard marker and a small
sponge.
Mentor will say the word and will exaggerate the sounds of each letter and say the
word slowly.
Students use a dry wipe marker to write the three sounds they hear.
Teacher checks and gives feedback if students have written the wrong sound.
Students rub out the writing with the sponge.
Progression to blending
Teacher can then drill the correct sequence of blending the sounds with the children.
Pictures of the words can be used as support or reinforcement.
Activity 2 – Jump on the Sound
Aim: to practise segmenting to identify initial, middle and final sounds in CVC words.
Students are divided into teams of 4/5 students.
Groups of students come to the front of the room. The teacher lays the large letter
cards on the floor. If there are 5 students in the group the teacher will lay down 4
cards of each letter.
For extra support for beginning students the teacher can show students the gapped
word flashcards as a prompt. The teacher will then say the word and tell the
students to jump on the letter (on the floor) for the missing sound.
Over time the teacher should reduce the support given to students and should ponly
say the word normally.
The game continues until one student is the winner.
Progression to blending
Teacher can then drill the correct sequence of blending the sounds with the children.
Pictures of the words can be used as support or reinforcement.
Activity 3 – Which Sounds?
Aim: Students begin to learn to see how many sounds there are in words.
2
3. Aim: Students understanding that some sounds have more than one letter is reinforced.
Aim: To practise segmenting and identifying initial, middle and final sounds in CVC words.
Teacher says some simple CVC words slowly while exaggerating the sounds.
Pairs or individual students use their small letter cards to set out the sounds they
hear.
Progression to blending
Teacher can then drill the correct sequence of blending the sounds with the children.
Pictures of the words can be used as support or reinforcement.
Activity 4 – Which Sounds? Variation
Aim: Students begin to learn to see and hear how many sounds there are in words.
Aim: Students understanding that some sounds have more than one letter is reinforced.
Aim: To practise identifying sounds and letters
Aim: To practise blending sounds to form words.
Teacher places flash cards on the board which show pictures of things the children’s
letters. For example, if the children have small letter cards with c, a, t, and p. These
sounds can spell cat and tap so the teacher puts pictures of a cat and a tap on the board.
Teacher says three sounds slowly while exaggerating the sounds. For example,
teacher says /k/ /æ/ and /t/.
Pairs of students use their small letter cards to set out the sounds they hear.
Progression to blending
Students then blend the three sounds to form a word. Students point to the picture
for that word.
Alternatively, give the students small pictures which they have to match with the
word.
Activity 5 – Phonics Necklaces
Aim: To practise segmenting the sounds in words and arranging letters in the order they
were heard.
Children are given sound necklaces to wear.
Teacher says a word and the children wearing the sounds in that word have to find
each other and arrange themselves in order.
Progression to blending
Teacher then walks students through the blending process by getting students to blend the
sounds together as necessary.
3
4. Activity 6 – Phonics Cubes.
Aim: To practise segmenting and then blending three sounds (CVC).
Groups of 3 students come to the front of the room.
Each student takes a giant cube and rolls the cube. Individually the students have
to make the sound and do the action for the letter that is face up.
Progression to blending
Next, as a group the students have to blend the three sounds together to make a word.
The students have to say if this is a real word or a nonsense word.
As a prompt you can have pictures of the possible words on the board.
Activity 7 – If you think you know the word shout it out
Aim: To practise hearing sounds and blending them together to form words.
Teach the students the song below to the tune “if you’re happy and you know it clap your
hands”
If you think you know this word, shout it out!
If you think you know this word, shout it out!
If you think you know this word,
Then tell me what you've heard,
If you think you know this word, shout it out!
After singing, the teacher says a segmented word such as /t/ /æ/ /p/ and students provide
the blended word "tap."
Activity 8 – Baseball Blending
Aim: To practise hearing sounds and blending them together to form words.
Divide the class into two teams.
Say aloud a word phoneme by phoneme, or example, /p/ /æ/ /n/. If the child that
is “up at bat” can blend the word, he or she advances to first base.
The next batter comes up, and the game continues just like baseball.
Activity 9 – Flip Books
Aim: To practise hearing sounds and blending them together to form words.
Each student is given a flip book.
The teacher calls out three sounds such as /p/ /æ/ /n/.
Students find the sounds for that word.
Students blend the sounds to read the word.
