6 Syllable Types - Free Resources and Activities

As children become readers they will read words with multi- syllables.  Knowing that each syllable has a vowel sound will help children with reading. Begin by introducing open and closed syllables.  Next, introduce vowel-consonant-silent-e and vowel combination syllables.  End with vowel-r and consonant l-e syllables.
