Hi friends! Are you ready to go on a spelling hike? 🥾 Today, we are practicing how to spell words with two syllables by breaking them down into smaller pieces.
In this lesson, we’ll learn a helpful spelling strategy:
đź“ť When a word feels long, it helps to break it up and spell each syllable one at a time.
We’ll explore how:
đź’ˇ Some syllables use specific letter teams like C-K to make the /k/ sound.
đź’ˇ Certain letters can change their sound depending on which neighbors they sit next to!
💡 Saying a word the way it’s spelled can help you remember those tricky middle vowels.
🎯 Then, it’s your turn! We’ll listen carefully to the sounds and use our new strategy to build a complete hiking list together.
