Great instructional video - works for independent / adult ESL learners too. I teach this in my adult classes and it's proven to tremendously advance not only their reading but also their speaking.
So cool that adults can use the exact same process - I agree!
Extremely helpful video. Please keep up the good work. I will definitely look into your other work.
Thank you! I'm so glad it was helpful!
I needed this basic knowledge to teach syllable patterns. Thank You Allison.
Glad it was helpful!

very helpful video! My 5y old son had no idea how to read 2 months ago. I started to teach him phonics and at the same time, I read Razkids C level articles with him. Now he has no problem to read Razkid level F and know how to pronounce the words he didn’t know.
I divided the word for him every time when he saw a new word. This video helps a lot when I teach him syllables. Thank you🎉
Wow! Sounds like you're doing a ton to support him and that he's made a lot of progress in a short amount of time!
You made my day! Thank you.
Thank you for all of your short and specific subject videos.🙌🏼🎉💕
You are so welcome!
This is going to help me a lot on my EFL classes. Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Hello ! Warm Greetings from Moscow! You know this way to teach kids how to read ...really look like reading in Russia!!! We usually teach our kids to read like this)))) it is a discovery!!!
Thank you. Your videos are very helpful. I love your phonic program.
As a german student in (10th grade, having been studying english for 7 years lol), this helped a LOT! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Thanks it also helps foreigners who's learning English
Glad to hear!
Thank you SO much!!
You're so very welcome!!
Awesome!
Thank you so much ❤
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for this lesson. You nailed it down for me.
You're so welcome! I'm glad this was helpful!
thank you
Excellent
I learned to teach with scoops underneath as opposed to splitting it with the line because the line could be confused with an L
can you comment more on the VC/V pattern & why the example word COMET is broken as COM / ET vs CO / MET? Thanks!
Hi! This pattern is tricky because a word can either be divided before or after the single consonant in the middle of the vowels. You can teach students to "try it both ways" and see which one makes a word. In my dialect of English, comet has a short o sound, therefore it makes the most sense to create a closed syllable (and therefore a short vowel) and divide it like com/et. If we divided it like this: co/met, it would be pronounced with a long o sound. Hope that helps!
What a fantastic video
Thank you!
Thank you !!! I teach kids English)))
Great video! Where is the link for the free resources to go along with the 4 must know syllable division rules?
Hi Lisa! Here's a free week of lesson plans from my From Sounds to Spelling phonics program: www.fromsoundstospelling.com/offers/kDL9WShY/checkout
Thanks
I really appreciate your help but we need more videos about syllables, with more examples.
Is there a book or a website we can learn more from?
I have a bunch of blogs about syllables you can check out! learningattheprimarypond.com/?s=syllable
Good lesson.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
It was important thing for me
Well done! Like it very much. I hope in the future hyphens will get replaced with vertical bars to do syllabifications because they (hyphens) lead to confusions some times.
Example:
Chinese and korean given names mostly consists of two syllables. Some romanizations show the syllables, others dont. I ll give you an example from Korea:
1) Gildong
2) Gil-dong
Its a given name. The problem is hyphens are also used to connect two seperate names with each other, like Jean-Claude or the german names Hans-Peter.
The only difference is the first letter of the second syllable isnt capitalized, Gil-dong, not Gil-Dong.
But since today so many ppl are spelling without usuing capital letters anymore, it looks like gil-dong and hans-peter, you cant see gildong is one name but hans and peter are two names.
A vertiacal bar is better.
Gil|dong and Hans-Peter
gil|dong and hans-peter
There is no confustion anymore.
Interesting!
@@learningattheprimarypond Thx :)
There is only one syllabification rule in English:
Syllables are to be divided in such a way that the written syllables match the spoken ones in a one-to-one correspondence. For example, using the International Phonetic Alphabet, belly has the
transcription /'be.li/ as the spoken syllables are ['be] and ['li].
The examples 'bathtub' and 'softball' are different because they are compound words. The syllable boundary is between the two words that have been compounded. This removes the need to incorrectly treat 'ft' as a digraph. This is separate to the VC/CV split which is as per some of your other examples in the comments is related to double consonants or consonant clusters, e.g. married, supper, dimple.
Hey! Just wanted to clarify something - "ft" is actually a blend (so each sound maintains a different sound /f/ and /t/ producing two different consonants and sounds.) In the other example, "th" is a digraph so the "t" and "h" come together to make one sound /th/.
@@learningattheprimarypond Hi. Yes, you do make that clear in your video :) You do say that you're going to treat the 'ft' as one consonant sound though, so my info was meant as a way of helping to show how this can be avoided if compound words are considered in relation to syllables. Great video that makes it clear how the vowel plays a key role in syllables!

Hello, teacher, how's it going? I'd like to know if you have a video explaining the stressed's word rules😅
Hi! I don't have a video but I'll add that to my ideas list! Often, the rule about stressing is that stress is put on the first syllable for nouns and second syllable for verbs. There are, of course, always exceptions though!
@@learningattheprimarypondTeacher, thanks for answering me and for your explanation about it 🥺
Tks Madam for these however, I was waiting how to pronounce the second syllable of the softball i.e ball as all are short vowels but it did not happen so pls help.
Hey there! "ball" follows the double final consonant rule which can be explained here - czcams.com/video/KdorFVceIJg/video.html
When i Split as v/cv or vc/v please.thank you toi much.
Hey there! You divide before the consonant if the first vowel has a long sound and divide after the consonant if the first vowel has a short sound.
Please I want to ask a question
There are a lot of videos teach kids to read in that pattern
Pa. Pe. Pi. Po. Pu
And pronounce the vowel as short sound. Isn't that wrong??
I think it will be opened syllable that way and will be pronounced as long sound not short as they do. Am I right??
It's probably best to teach them as isolated without the "p" in front, correct.
Could you explain how to divide “stubborn”, “possum”, “married”?
stub-born, pos-sum, mar-ried
These would all fall under the VC/CV category :)
I think it should be ma rried. We don't say mar ried. The rules don't always work.
Hello, I have got a question:
We divide the word process right after the consonant which is between two vowels though the first vowel is long, could you tell me why????🤔
In the word "process," the "o" makes a short vowel sound!
@@learningattheprimarypond but actually it is a diphthong, why then it makes a short vowel sound? It is like the word procedure where we break the rule, but again why??
I hope you could answer that, waiting your response.
Thanks.
v|cv and vc|v, how to know which one is use for a word, we must look up dictionary or is there any tip to know this rule?
You can try it either way to see which one sounds right!
I am studying English right now.
My 3 year old can read 3 letter words now. Can blend well. What should be the next step?
Wow! If you think the child is ready, you could start doing some work with high frequency words! That's amazing :)
Thanks ma'am this video so helpful .Can you please send pdf ma'am

How would you say Poem? Is it like po-em or poem?
po-em
does this help to identify the long vowel or short vowel in the first syllable ? nope then why this syllable concept i don't understand.my point here is how do I know if it is a long vowel or short vowel in the word CABIN.what ist the point in knowing the pronunciation of a word and dividing it into syllables ?.if syllable helps in pronouncing the words accurately then its worth studying else its just a waste of time .
Knowing syllable types and rules can help you identify if it's a short or long vowel sound.
🎉
Did you learn about syllables by simply clapping?
❤
What is the rule for consonant belnds? like start, floor, cream
Those are all 1 syllable words, so this particular video isn't necessarily addressing that however, if they are part of a multisyllabic word, the blends are viewed as two separate consonants because they each still make their own sound!
Thank you very much for responding.
Your video has helped me in designing ny self crafted module for my niece. ❤❤🌸🌸
❤😊
now I'm really confused. No wonder I can't do haiku.
why does counter has two syllables as count-er, while not as coun-ter?
Hey there! I think it could be coun-ter because you have the vc/cv combo. Something that I emphasize with my students is that we just do the best we can in dividing up a word and pronouncing it, but we know that sometimes the rules don’t all apply perfectly. Hope this helps!
@@learningattheprimarypond thank you so much. IT just confuses me so much .I can`t figure out which rule it follows. The same issue with festival divided into fes-ti-val (not fes-tiv-al like camel into cam-al)
Hey
Do you provide worksheets
The worksheets in the video come from my phonics program, From Sounds to Spelling - www.fromsoundstospelling.com/
I also have a product that's focused on just syllable types and division! Here's the link for that - www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Complete-Guide-to-Teaching-Syllable-Types-Syllable-Division-Rules-7174680
Thank you so much and also can this help people with dyslexia
???
Child is learn my English but he is not read what can I do
He is 9y old
Hey there! I have tons of resources/blogs here that you may want to check out - learningattheprimarypond.com/parents/
Is he in school? What does his teacher say?
Offering a free week is a tricky method to sign a person up to pay for your program. I do not wish to receive any of your information.
The free week does not require any payment or anything up front. Let me know if you change your mind :)
Ouf! Vous parlez beaucoup trop vite, c’est vraiment difficile de vous suivre. Dommage! Ce que vous dites sembles vraiment intéressant.
Hope the video was helpful!
About the word 'city', do you pronounce /ˈsɪt-i/ or /ˈsɪ-ti/? In Cambridge Dictionary it writes /ˈsɪt.i/. Thanks!
Hi there! Good question. Technically, the stressed syllable is on the first part - "cit" - and so it's divided "cit-y." But remember sometimes the way it's divided up writing vs how we say it/stress it can differ!
@@learningattheprimarypond Do you mean the native speaker doesn't link/blend the /t/ with /sɪ/ in first syllable when speaking, they speak /sɪ/ + /ti/ instead /sɪt/ + /i/?
I think it should be ci ty.
@@keithdenyer3937 I think so.
The word 'rhythm' we divide /ˈrɪð.əm/ or /ˈrɪ.ðəm/?
There can be some debate about words like this, but I'd say "rhyth-um"
@@learningattheprimarypond about the word 'original', we divide to [əˈrɪdʒ.ə.nəl ] or [əˈrɪ.dʒə.nəl ]?
Is there any different sound for these two phonetics when speaking?
Thanks!
Do you have/ know of workbooks for syllable division? Anything all in one.
@@rachellaurie5700 syllable division in Cambridge Dictionary is stu|pid, many English teachers say it is total wrong.
