which of the following best describes breaking down words into separate sounds?
blending sounds
deletion of sounds
creative sounds
segmenting sounds

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "Blending sounds" combines sounds, not breaks them down.
• "Deletion of sounds" removes sounds, not breaks words into separate sounds.
• "Creative sounds" is not a term related to breaking down word sounds.
• "Segmenting sounds" refers to the process of breaking words into individual sounds (phonemes), which matches the description in the question.

Answer:

D. Segmenting sounds
