 Hi, today I'm going to talk about one way I teach syllable identification to my students. This activity is called syllable hop and a syllable is a part of a word. So the kids are going to be standing up so make sure you have some space and what they're going to do is they're going to hop for the number of syllables they hear in a word. So for example I would tell the kids say elephant and they would repeat it, elephant. And then the kids would hop for the number of syllables so they would hop three times elephant. They would hop three times and tell me that there are three syllables in the words, in the word elephant. I would give them another word for example daisy and they would hop two times because there are two syllables in the word daisy. The kids really enjoy this activity and it really makes a connection between the movement and hearing really sticks it in their brain and they really like this activity and I hope you like it too. Thanks!
