Syllable Workshop: Category Beat Hunt
Name:
Date:
Today I am practising: sorting words by both category and syllable count
1
Clap cat and put it under one-beat animals.
2
Clap tiger and put it under two-beat animals.
3
Clap elephant and put it under three-beat animals.
4
Clap pear and place it under one-beat foods.
5
Clap banana and place it under three-beat foods.
6
Choose a category word, count its beats, and explain your placement.
- Review the category names before sorting so the task does not become a vocabulary quiz.
- Ask the child to say the word before moving it into a column.
- When two skills compete, record category accuracy and beat accuracy separately.
