About This

• DEVELOPED BY TARA WEST: Build strong foundations in phonemic awareness with Little Minds at Work Sound Segmenting Trays, a multisensory tool aligned to Science of Reading. Students see, say, and move sounds to blend and segment words with confidence.
• PRESCHOOL LEARNING ACTIVITIES: Perfect for small group instruction, whole class modeling, or centers. Visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile inputs work together so early readers connect letters to sounds and build fluency.
• TEACH PHONEMIC AWARENESS: Each write and wipe tray features a display slot for cards, a large slot for markers or magnetic wands, and two rows of circular indentations for 2, 3, or 4 sounds. Trays nest for easy storage and measure 7 x 9 x 0.5 inches.
• SPEECH THERAPY TOOLS FOR TEACHERS: Use with magnetic chips, counters, or small objects to make phonics practice hands on. Color cues for beginning, middle, and ending sounds help children map phonemes, while the tidy layout keeps tools organized.
• SCIENCE OF READING MANIPULATIVES: Set includes 6 rainbow write on wipe off Sound Segmenting Trays and a Getting Started Guide by educator Tara West. These teacher friendly trays streamline daily phonics and word work.
