  1. Syllabication Strategy • Syllabicate (“sound-it-out”) • Used for decoding to increase fluency • A great warm-up activity prior to reading an expository passage • Time: 15 minutes

  2. Objective:For the students to correctly pronounce the words by applying the syllabication strategy. • Materials: • Horizontal handout of words spread out (three to four rows of four words) • Document camera/Projector • Or whiteboard

  3. Prior to implementing this strategy: Review Phonics rules • Open syllables • Closed syllables • Long vowel sounds (ū) • Short vowel sounds (ŭ) • Schwa () • Silent-e

  4. Step 1: Select 10-16 words from the Expository passage • molecules • carbon • organisms • sulfur • atoms • bonded • abundant • functional • unique • properties • components • attached

  5. Step 2: Create the handout • Type up the words horizontally on a word document • Spread them out and increase the font • It should take up the entire page

  6. Step 3: Make an answer key • Use a dictionary to determine the correct syllables and sound pronunciation • www.dictionary.com • For example: • Molecule  mol’-kūl  mol-uh-kyool • mol/e/cule

  7. Lets syllabicate! • Set a timer or specify how much time the students have to put slashes in between the syllables • Have students complete one row at a time or whole page • Student(s) respond with, “In between the ____ and ____…” • You can have one student at time tell you where to put the slashes or call on a group of students sitting at the same table • The student(s) tell you to put the slash in between which two letters • Give feedback • Have another student agree or disagree with the slash and explain their strategy • Cue the student(s) by saying, “short /o/…long /u/…schwa…closed syllable” etc. • If students miss a syllable, model the strategy again by clapping or tapping out the word • Reading the word • You say, “first syllable…second syllable… blend” • While you are saying this, you point or draw a half-circle under the syllable.
