Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Introduce learners to reading longer words such as objects (2 syllables), strangers (2 syllables), electricity (5 syllables) and water (2 syllables), Traffic (2 syllables) etc. Let them know that we break words according to the syllables. Practice clapping these words and counting the number of syllables in them. Have learners add the syllables in some selected words e.g. water and understand (2 syllables + 3 syllables = 5 syllables). Extend the activity to include other objects.
