Video Reflection – Rhyme

Video Reflection – Rhyme

Before watching the video, I understood what rhyming words are. Rhyming words are a set of words that have similar ending sounds. To identify whether a group of words rhyme, the sense of hearing is the most effective since it helps a learner to listen to sounds in a word and determine whether the words sound the same at their when (Foorman et al., 2016). The video confirms rhyming is a precursor to phonemic awareness and letter sounds. The video also affirms that teaching rhyming words is an easy exercise. Once a teacher explains rhyming words and provides examples, it becomes easy for students to engage in activities to identify rhyming words (REL Southeast, 2016). For instance, by providing learners with a group of words, they can recognize the words that rhyme effectively. Also, students can align pictures whose words rhyme. Students only require the teacher to demonstrate, give examples to emulate, and provide correct responses to practice exercises.

The video does not have any contradictive information about teaching rhyming words from what I knew before. However, I did not know that using pictures can be an effective strategy for teaching rhyme. The video effectively demonstrates how images can be grouped on whether they rhyme (REL Southeast, 2016). Students should first name the pair of pictures provided and then examine whether the words have the same ending sounds. The video gives good demonstrations on how to make rhyming activities manageable by students by providing clear examples of words that rhyme and those that do not rhyme. Students should acquire the basics of the learning concepts to help them articulate the skills independently in-class activities.
