VCCCV Monster Words

 Hi Everyone!

Thank you! So there is method to the madness of the English Language!  I wish I had learned these syllable division patterns earlier in life....how helpful would that have been.  So the "Monster" Words as we call them, are those few words that don't follow the VCCV (vowel, consonant, consonant, vowel- divide between the two consonants) rule.  These words have blends and digraphs. My students look for the blends and digraphs in the word, knowing they stick together and so they are able to divide the word.

I have uploaded a New Information Page freebie for you.  Happy Syllable Dividing!

V*CV or VC*V Syllable Division

 Hi Everyone!

I have migrated to my new website www.theinstructionhub.com.

Thank you! In class we are reviewing "Tiger Words (V * CV)" and "Camel Words (VC * V)" for syllable division patterns.  I teach my students to try dividing the word both ways and reading it aloud to find the familiar word.  If they are having trouble reading the word, I have them cover one syllable with their finger and read it aloud, then do the same for the next syllable.

Here is a quick practice guide I made to review both.  I had them divide and swoop the words first, then write them in the correct category.

Cool Graphing Website

This week we are working on graphs.  This is a neat site for creating your own graphs.  We did it today in class and my kiddos loved it!

Wow! The NCIDA conference went really well this weekend. There were some great presenters and I look forward to next year's conference in Hickory.

  Thank you to all of those who attended our math session.   I hope you were able to find it useful and purposeful.  I also hope you were able to take away some ideas for your class. Have a great week!
