ELED 3100 ACTUAL EXAM PAPER 2026
COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
◉ Blending
Answer: Blending sounds prepares students for segmenting and
initial sounds. This is all auditory and there is no symbol attached to
this skill!!
Example:
• What word is made from these sounds: c-a-t
• What word is made from these sounds: t-r-e
• What word is made from these sounds: h-ou-s
• Blending will also look like chunking: c-at
Take individual sounds and blend them together to form a word
◉ Segmenting
Answer: The division of sentences into words, compound words into
component words, words into syllables, syllables into onset and
rime and finally, words into phonemes.
,Examples
If I say the word CAT, you say...c-a-t
If I say the word SUN, you say...s-u-n
Tell me the sounds you here in MOP
Break up words into individual sounds
◉ Deletion
Answer: Deletion is the manipulation of sounds in words. By
deleting a sound, you are creating a new word. The text calls this
manipulation. Your final will call this: Deletion
Examples
What is stop without the /s/ sound?
What is farm without the /f/ sound?
What is bread without the /b/ sound?
Take away a sound (letter) and it forms a new word
, ◉ What is the single most distinguishing feature about phonemic
awareness?
Answer: Sound. You can hear it (it is all auditory)
This involves being able to detect separate words in a sentence, to
separate syllables in a word, to segment words into their separate
sounds and to perceive beginning, ending, and medial sounds.
The consciousness of individual sounds in words. It is the realization
that a spoken word is composed of a sequence of speech sounds.
The ultimate goal in phonemic awareness is to enable students to
learn letter sound correspond
The secret to remember about phonological or phonemic
awareness...students can do this with their eyes closed.
Main skills are: Rhyming, Blending, Segmenting, Manipulating,
◉ Key phonological skills
Answer: Phonological awareness involves being able to detect
separate words in a sentence, to separate syllables in a word, to
segment words into their separate sounds and to perceive
beginning, ending, and medial sounds.
