Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
In a closed syllable, the vowel is closed off by a consonant, causing the vowel to make a short sound.
- •
The word 'rabbit' is an example of a two-syllable word where both vowels are closed off by consonants.
- •
If you are unsure of the sound a vowel makes, split the word into syllables and check to see if the syllables are closed.
