We have been learning how to sound out and spell tough words by learning how to break words into syllables. Students noticed that if they didn't understand how syllables work, they would think the word FOCUS was pronounced "Fah-cus" because there is no vowel team or silent e to make the O say its name. But because we know "FO" is an open syllable, we know how to read and say the word FOCUS correctly! We are AMAZING syllable decoders!!!
The word FOCUS/FAH-CUS has become an inside joke; now we are always telling each other to "fah-cus"! Just for fun and to help us "fah-cus", we decided to make a poster for our classroom! We are always having fun in Fourth grade!❤
