Exploring Open and Closed Syllables

Mr. Dawg welcomes the class back to their first-grade reading lesson, focusing on syllables. The lesson includes a video from Kids Academy, where Chris the Word Whiz explains how to divide words into syllables, highlighting open and closed syllables. Open syllables end with a vowel and often have long vowel sounds, while closed syllables end with a consonant and tend to have short vowel sounds. The class practices identifying syllables in words and clapping out beats. The lesson concludes with a preview of the next session.
