EMPOWER STUDENTS TO READ MULTI-SYLLABLE WORDS!
Teach them the Six Syllable Types!
There are 93 pages in color!
93 page Black & White (Grayscale) copy is also included!
___________________________________________________________________________________________
There are four activities for each of the Six Syllable Types.
The examples shown below are for teaching Closed Syllables.
Use the parts on each page that belong to the vowel sound that is being taught. For example,
when teaching the short “a” sound, use all short “a” sound parts as circled on the pages below.
(For more information about this, see note at bottom of blog.)
Word Puzzles show that putting two puzzle pieces together is like putting two parts (syllables) of
the word together.
The Worksheets and Wordlists help students learn a consistent way to break words into syllables.
The Syllable Sort Cards provide a fun, hands-on way to reinforce learning the Syllable Types.
Students mark, cut and sort the syllables in each word. For Closed Syllable Words, the syllables
are sorted by vowel sounds.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
The students sort by Syllable Types as more are learned. When students have progressed to the
last Syllable Type, they will mark, cut and sort the Word Cards for the Consonant-le Syllable
words. (Pineapple, maple, steeple and startle are shown below.) Note: the first 2 cards in each
row show the Syllable Type and an example.

The following page demonstrates how to break words into syllables. There is a detailed
