Review

VCCCV Syllable Division, consonant blends

In this lesson, we learned the VCCCV syllable division pattern. Keep the blends and diagraphs together. Example:  os/trich (note that ch is used after a short vowel in a word with more than one syllable).

Diagraphs

Two letters that make one sound. For example, ch, ck, ph, sh, th, wh.

Consonant Blends

Two consonants whose sounds are heard but said very close together. For example, bl, br, cl, cr, dr, fl, fr, gl, gr, pl, pr, sc, scr, sl, sp, spl, spr, squ, st, str, sw.

Practice

  1. Underline the beginning blends once. Underline the end blends twice.
    flit scram
    clop brim
    gland whisk
    frond tusk
  2. Mark the vowels with a V. Mark the consonants with a C.  Show where the syllables divide in these words. Read the word.
    nostril
    actress
    mascot
    inspect
    contract
    blacktop
