Description
The Silent E, also known as the "Magic E," changes the sound of the previous vowel to a long sound. In this worksheet, students will work with syllables in words that follow the VCE pattern, or Vowel-Consonant-Silent E pattern. They will divide ten VCE words into syllables and then practice adding the Silent E to the end of ten new words, observing how it alters both the pronunciation and meaning of the word. This grammar and phonics worksheet is intended for fourth graders and helps them recognize, spell, and pronounce VCE words.
