  3. Word Puzzle • Put the words in the baggiesintocategories. Group the wordsbased on similaritiesyousee or hearwithin the word. • I willgiveyouapproximately 3-5 minutes to do this! Good luck!

  4. Word Groups • What do yourword groups look like? • This iswhatyour groups should look like, withsome exceptions. • Why do the word groups look likethis?

  5. The word group categories We will now go over what each category is and what it means by creating a flipbook! Please take notes so you can complete the activity on Friday!

  6. Short Vowel • Definition • When a word has short vowel letters, the word will say the sound of the letter not the name. • Example • Apple; notice the A is not pronounced at its name but as the sound of A • Counter Example • Scale; notice the A in the word scale is pronounced as its name not its sound.

  7. Long Vowel • Definition • When a word has long vowel letters, the word will say the name of the letter not the sound. • Example • Bike; notice the I says its name, not the sound of the letter I. • Counter Example • Brick; notice the I says its sound, not its name.

  8. Digraphs • Definition • A digraph is when two letters come together to form a single sound. • Example • Shrimp; notice the S and the H come together to form a single sound. • Counter Example • Slug; notice the S and L come together but you can hear each sound individually. The two letters do not form one sound.

  9. Blends • Definition • A blend is a word that has two and three constant letter combinations. When the letters come together each letter’s sound is heard. • Example • Street; notice you can hear each individual sound of the letter S, T, and R in the word street. • Counter Example • Chicken; although the two letters at the beginning are consonants, when they come together they form only one sound, you cannot hear the separate sounds of the C and H. If you did the word would be pronounced… Do you hear the blend in chicken though?

  10. Affixes Prefix & Suffix • Definition • An added element to a base word to form a new word. • Example • Finished; notice the base word FINISH has the added element of ED to make the word past tense. • Prefix • An affix or element added before a base word • Unattractive; affix UN added to the beginning of the base word ATTRACTIVE • Suffix • An affix or element added at the end of a base word • Recycle; base word CYCLE with the added affix RE at the end.

  11. Multi-Syllables • Definitions • A syllable is the sound of a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) that's created when pronouncing a word. • Multi-syllable is when you hear the sound of a vowel in a word more than once. • Examples • One syllable word • Cake; notice your chin only moves down once when you say the word cake. • Multi-Syllable • Diving; notice your chin moves down twice when you say the word diving.

  12. Great Job! • That’s all the words for this session of wordology! • Please turn your flipbooks in to me before you leave so I can keep them for you so you will have them when we do the activity on Friday. • Thanks for paying attention and have a great day!!!
