a. Count, blend, segment, and delete syllables in spoken words, including polysyllabic words.

b. Recognize and produce groups of rhyming words and distinguish them from non-rhyming groups of spoken words.

e. Add, delete, and substitute phonemes at the beginning or end of spoken words made up of three to five phonemes, and produce the resulting word.
Examples: pan to pant; flight to light; cat to cap
f. Distinguish long from short vowel sounds in spoken, single-syllable words.
