Phonemic Awareness: is the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual
sounds-phonemes- in spoken words. Before children learn to read print, they
need to become more aware of how the sounds in words work. They must understand

sound in a spoken word that make a difference in a word’s meaning).
