For example, tell the student to spell the /f/ sound in PHONE with ph until the word is mastered. The first list, on Page 29, is used for comparing closed and v-c-e syllables. Some students will need coaching to anticipate the change in sounds from HUG to HUGE. You may even wish to omit these from your comparison list to avoid confusion — and incorporate practice with the different g and c sounds into your lessons.\nSome students will need to have the vowel-consonant-e pattern broken into separate vowels and learned individually; some won’t. Also watch to see whether some consonants may merit some review. Have the student listen especially to how you say ESCAPE. Many students say EXCAPE and spell the word accordingly.\nSome students pronounce the e at the end of words. This may be a good time for a minilesson to introduce words where y at the end makes that long e sound. It’s out of sequence, as the y is an open syllable, but it can be treated as a special category (like -TION) would.\nWHILE and QUITE deserve extra practice.\nQuite often, the CUTE and CUSE syllables are spelled with a q; you may wish to devote a lesson to this pattern. Also, i is most often found in a schwa syllable before a u-consonant-e syllable such as -TUDE, -TUTE or -BUTE. e-consonant-e is fairly unusual. Call attention to this; with other vowels the silent e is one of the most common ways of spelling the long sound. Homophones that could be confused for common words such as METE and DISCRETE are excluded. Keep in mind that spell-checkers will not distinguish these from MEET and DISCREET. y-consonant-e is found in many scientific words, since a lot of these are Greek. THYME and -GYLE (as in ARGYLE) are exceptions to the usual th- and gbefore-y sounds, so they are not listed with the syllables. If THYME comes up in reading, you may wish to learn it with THOMAS and THAMES, which follow the same pattern but are more common. Many y-consonant-e words are included; teach the ones your student has already run across or is most likely to encounter.\n\u000f\nCOMPARING CLOSED SYLLABLES AND VOWEL-CONSONANT-E SYLLABLES\nIntroduction list\nComparing closed and vowel-consonant-e syllables (v-c-e).
