Today you will learn to understand word divisions and how to use syllables in decoding and writing.
 “One vowel sound = one syllable.”
Repeat with lists for each of the following rules:
Divide between two vowels if they have different sounds, but not if they make only one sound together.
Divide between two consonants unless they form a digraph.
If a consonant is between two vowels, divide the word before the consonant if the first vowel has the long sound, and after the consonant if the first vowel is short and accented.
Remind students that words should only be divided between syllables when it is necessary to split them over two lines.

Haiku: Haiku is a great tool for practicing syllables. A poem from Japanese culture, haiku uses a strict syllable count to communicate intense imagery, usually about nature themes. The form has three lines, of five, seven and five syllables, respectively.
Begin by reading examples of poems.


The old pond-
a frog jumps in,
sound of water.

Blown from the west,
fallen leaves gather
in the east.

The crow has flown away;
swaying in the evening sun,
a leafless tree.


After students create their own haiku poems, provide them with a collection of objects from which to design illustrations to support the poems.

Limerick: Take the practice to the next level by combining syllables with rhyme schemes.
Provide students with examples of traditional limericks.


There once was a young lady named bright
Whose speed was much faster than light
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.

“There was a Young Lady of Dorking,
Who bought a large bonnet for walking;
But its colour and size,
So bedazzled her eyes,
That she very soon went back to Dorking.”



The characteristics of limerick poems:
They have five lines.
Lines 1, 2 and 5 have seven to ten syllables and rhyme with each other.
Lines 3 and 4 have five to seven syllables and rhyme.
They are usually humorous.
