Silent E, Magic E, FreeB E!

Silent e... Magic e... Sparkly e...Whatever you choose to call the final e that turns a cvc word into a long vowel word, we know how important it is for kids to latch onto the most basic of the silent e rules in order to decode quickly as they read.

Does anybody remember The Electric Company? (ancient history!!) Here's a fun clip from YouTube
with a song that will help some of your students see and remember just how the rule works!

When you're ready for some more practice for your literacy centers or small groups, click on this picture to head over to my blog and get this freebie. It's a set of short vowel-to-long vowel word cards, along with a task card. Enjoy!


Happy Teaching!
