A kindergarten teacher implements the following lesson:
Teacher: What are the sounds in the word "sit"?

As an additional support to her five students struggling with the phonemic awareness lesson during
whole group instruction, a kindergarten teacher uses Elkonin boxes with colored tiles. As the teacher
says a word, the student moves a tile in a box for each sound they hear in the target word. The teacher
calls on each student to tell her the sounds they hear in the word while touching the colored tiles. This
strategy should enhance understanding of identifying sounds because:
,A. it uses an auditory technique that allows the student to hear the sounds louder during instruction.
B. it uses a pre-teaching technique that prepares the student to identify sounds orally.
C. it enhances the lesson by making it more fun for students, using colors and grids.
D. it uses a kinesthetic technique that allows the student to use a hands-on approach for identifying
sounds in a word. - Answer: D. it uses a kinesthetic technique that allows the student to use a hands-on
