Praxis 5002 Practice Test Practice Question

Which THREE of the following questions target phoneme manipulation?

Correct Answer: A,D,E

Rationale: Phoneme manipulation involves changing, adding, or removing sounds in words. Options A, D, and E effectively engage students in this skill.

A asks what happens when /f/ is removed from "flap," directly requiring the student to manipulate sounds. D involves adding /s/ to "lap," which also focuses on sound change. E prompts the student to identify the change from "pan" to "pin," emphasizing sound alteration.

Options B and C do not target phoneme manipulation. B focuses on syllable clapping, which relates to syllable awareness rather than phonemes, while C involves identifying a similar ending sound, which is more about rhyme than manipulation.
