Today I am practising: sorting spoken words by syllable count
1
Say sun and place it in the one-beat column.
2
Clap rabbit and place it in the two-beat column.
3
Clap elephant and place it in the three-beat column.
4
Draw one line for each beat in tomato.
5
Find the word with the most beats: cat, pencil, butterfly.
6
Tell an adult how you checked one tricky word.
- Say each word naturally first; repeat it slowly only after the child listens once.
- Let the child tap, clap, or move counters—use one action consistently for a round.
- Correct by saying the word together, not by asking the child to count letters.
