This week we are exploring the long e sound in accented syllables. We can also see some short vowel sounds in accented syllables. Remember, we can clearly hear the vowel sound in the accented syllable.

This week we are continuing our look at long vowel patterns in accented syllables. This time, we find long "u" patterns in accented syllables. Here is how the words should be sorted:
1st Tuesday* useful moody doodle toothache noodle scooter beauty* cougar* * The starred words belong in this column, but you may notice that they have an odd pattern for making the long "u" sound. If we did a pattern sort, these would be oddballs. 2nd include refuse amuse confuse perfume excuse pollute reduce balloon cartoon raccoon shampoo cocoon conclude This week we are looking at long "o" patterns in syllables. Here is how the words should be sorted:
1st toaster hostess lonely owner lower lonesome loafer closely soapy bowling poster postage 2nd below explode suppose compose decode remote alone approach awoke erode oddball bureau - this word has the long "o" sound, but has a different spelling rowboat - this word has a long "o" sound in both syllables In this sort, students are exploring the patterns that occur when two syllables meet. Some of these patterns produce a long vowel sound, while others produce a short vowel sound. Here is how the words should be sorted this week:
V/CV (long) - the words in this column have a first syllable that ends in a vowel. When that happens, we call the syllable "open" and the result is a long vowel sound. human pilot frozen student humor lazy music VC/V (short) - the words in this column have a first syllable that ends with a consonant. When this happens, we call the syllable "closed" and the result is a short vowel sound. wagon river visit never planet lemon finish seven present second minute VVCV (long) - the words in this column have a syllable break after a vowel, and so it is still considered an open syllable. reason meeting peanut leader sneaker easy |
