thunderstormNote: Compound words can be a linguistic concept that helps students begin to understand how a word
can be comprised of smaller chunks of sound. Activities for working with compound words are provided and
recommended as segues into working with syllables. However, if a student’s understanding of compound words is
not firm or becomes confused as activities with syllables are completed, then avoid including compound words in
the lessons and revisit the concept later once the ability to blend and segment syllables is solid.
