Hey there! Let’s have some fun learning about words that have special sounds. These sounds are called units. When you know these units, reading becomes easier and more fun!
Units are little parts of words that you can find in many different words. Today, we’re going to learn about three special units: ing, ang, and ong. These units help us read words by breaking them into smaller, easy-to-read parts.
Here’s a cool trick! When you see a word with one of these units, use your finger to split the word into chunks. This helps you see the parts of the word clearly. Let’s try it with some examples:
Let’s practice finding these units in more words:
Great job! Keep using your finger to find these units, and you’ll become a reading superstar!
Try to find more words with ing, ang, and ong around you. Maybe in your favorite storybook or even on signs when you’re outside. Happy reading!
Word Hunt Adventure: Go on a word hunt around your home or classroom. Look for items or pictures that have words with the ing, ang, or ong units. For example, you might find a “ring” or a “song” book. Write down the words you find and share them with your friends or family. How many words can you discover?
Sound Detective Game: Play a game where you become a sound detective! Ask a friend or family member to say a word that has one of the units, like “wing” or “bang.” Use your finger to break the word into parts and say each part out loud. Can you guess the word by listening to the sounds?
Create a Word Art: Use colorful paper, crayons, or markers to create a piece of art with words that have the ing, ang, and ong units. Draw pictures to go along with each word. For example, draw a king wearing a crown or a songbird singing. Display your artwork to show others the fun words you’ve learned!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

[Music] These words can be split into chunks called units. The same units can be found in lots of words, so it’s helpful if you learn to recognize them. Units sound out, hang in long, and can be found in various words. To read these words, use your finger to separate them into chunks. Good.
Now, don’t forget to use a finger when you find one of these units.
