Tool #2 Puzzle Words Puzzle Words are words that have been broken down into sounds and word parts. Each word is represented by a fun image, the letters that spell the word and the Sound Symbols for each sound. The letters and symbols are spaced so that they can be cut apart. Having separate pieces helps with putting sounds together and breaking them apart. Make Phonological Awareness Fun!
