A syllable is a part of a word that contains sounds (phonemes) of a word. It usually has a vowel in it. A syllable is also called a ‘beat’ and teachers often teach children to identify syllables by clapping the ‘beats’ in words. Another way to describe a syllable is a ‘mouthful’ of a word.
How to count syllables
- The “Listen Method” Rules:
Say the word.
How many times do you hear A, E, I, O, or U as a separate sound?
This is the number of syllables
- The “Chin Method” Rules
Put your hand under your chin.
Say the word.
How many times does your chin touch your hand?
This is the number of syllables
- The “Clap Method” Rules
Clapping may help you find syllables.
Say the word.
Clap each time you hear A, E, I, O, or U as a separate sound.
The number of claps is the number of syllables.
