One of the reasons this is so is that phonemic awareness develops when youngsters must think about the sounds they are hearing in order to write letters. B. Many of the activities that research has shown to be successful in helping to increase students' phonemic awareness have been deliberately designed to be game-like and playful to sustain students' interests.
