Exploring Vowel Sounds and Spelling Patterns

The video tutorial reviews vowel consonant silent e spelling patterns, starting with a recap of closed syllables, which have one vowel followed by consonants, making the vowel sound short. It then explains how adding a silent e changes the vowel to a long sound, where the vowel says its name. Examples are provided, such as changing 'tap' to 'tape'. The tutorial includes spelling practice with words like 'cake' and 'bone', demonstrating how the silent e affects pronunciation. The session concludes with a recap of the vowel consonant syllables.
