Six pages for reading longer words by breaking them into syllables. Every syllable has a vowel sound, so children underline the vowels to count a word's syllables, draw a line between the two syllables of words like napkin and cactus and write each one in a box, draw lines to join first and second syllables into words, read and match words to pictures, and circle the word that names a picture.
Write a word like napkin on the board, underline the a and the i, and split it between the two consonants in the middle: nap-kin. Read each part, then the whole word. Clapping the parts helps children check the split.
Find two-part words on food boxes and signs: muffin, napkin, picnic. Cover one half with a finger and read each part, then the whole word.
Worksheets for reading two-syllable words such as napkin, muffin, magnet and picnic by splitting them into syllables. Children count the vowels to find the syllables, split words between the syllables, join syllables into words, and read and match words to pictures.
