Introduction

Begin the lesson by explaining the concept of rhyming words. Present an example sentence strip with a missing word: "She met the ____. Vet or wet?" Show two word options and ask students to complete the rhyme.

Explicit Instruction/Teacher modeling

Emphasize the key idea that rhyming words end with the same sound. Provide examples like "sip" and "flip" or "best" and "rest" that rhyme, contrasting with words like "tip" and "past" that do not rhyme. Solve an example together: "She met the vet." Both words rhyme because they end with "et."
