If your learners can read words like cake, side, or vote, they may be ready to learn how to apply that knowledge to read longer words like cupcake, beside, or revote.

Unfortunately, it’s not that always simple for our struggling readers. It’s important that we teach CVCe syllables in an explicit way, breaking down the process of decoding so all our readers can be successful. That’s what you’ll find in this video, How to Teach CVCe Syllables. I encourage you to…

1. Watch the Video to Learn:
