Everything About Open Syllables and Closed Syllables
What are they?
Closed Syllable: If there is a consonant after the vowel, the vowel will say its short sound (the door is CLOSED).

Why do we teach them?
Knowing when a syllable is open or closed will help kids know if they will say a vowel’s long or short sound! This is incredibly helpful when we start reading multisyllabic words (words with more than one syllable!).How else can I help?
If your learner is struggling to read an open or closed syllable. Help them figure it out cover the last syllable and just show them the first syllable. Have them figure out if it is open or closed. Then show them the second syllable and have them figure out if it is open or closed. Put the syllables together to read the word! Ex: ba/sic Here is the link to the slides, posters and worksheets.
