key idea

When you read, it can help to break up a word into syllables. Each syllable has one vowel sound.

First, find the vowels. Remember, y can be a vowel. Some vowel sounds have more than one vowel letter.

mailbox

purple

baby

Then, divide the word into syllables so that there is one vowel sound in each syllable. Often, you can divide the word in between the consonants.

mail|box

pur|ple

ba|by

To read the word, sound out each syllable, then say them together.

mail|box

pur|ple

ba|by
