Lesson 4
Counting syllables
Directions:
 Revise the vowel sounds
 we part the word into parts due to the number of the vowels:
1. one part words like: hat - dog - mug.....
2. Two part words like: Helmet - parcel - camel....
3. Three part words like: elephant - officer..
4. If the word has 2 or 3 close vowels, it is considered one-part
word like: reflection (it has 3 syllables)
5. If the word ends in Y, the letter y acts like a vowel and thus
(Lady - baby - sorry) are 2-part words.
6. final (e) is written but not said, (like - love - have) are one-part
words, as we do not hear the sound of the final letter (e).
Take enough time to illustrate each rule by givin g
a plenty of example for each above case. write words in strips of
papers and with plastic scissors, ask children to cut down and split the
words in the sight of what they learnt.
