Phonemic Awareness By tigmil

All of the research I have seen says that phonemic awareness instruction should occur in Kindergarten and mastered by 2nd grade. I think it would be hard to have activities for the upper grades. If a child cannot hear and manipulate the sounds in words by the 4th grade, he/she has a serious reading problem.

With that said, you could look at this website for ideas for teaching all five components for early literacy

Good luck!
