Overview
The children will eat (or pretend to eat) a chip with dip as they recognize and produce words that rhyme with chip, such as dip, tip, lip, and sip. 

Literacy Activities

• Pass out chips, dip, and water (real or pretend). 
• Give the children instructions and a demonstration on how to eat chips and dip: 
  • Grip your chip. 
  • Dip the tip of your chip. 
  • Let some dip drip off the chip. 
  • Put the chip to your lip. 
  • Eat the chip. 
  • Take a sip. 
  • Lick your lip.

More Practice

• Ask the children what they did during the activity (e.g., “I ate a chip with dip.”) while you write the sentences on the board. 
• Read the sentences back to the children, emphasizing each rhyming word. 
• Choose one sentence, and march around a table chanting it together (e.g., Dip the chip! or Dip and sip!).
