Syllable Showdown
This presentation is a fun and inclusive game where students break lists of words into beats based on the number of syllables. Your class will have a great time clapping, jumping, stomping and waving through these word lists.
Suitable for lower primary students, your class will learn how to break down 1, 2 and 3 syllable words.
Whole class brain break or game to introduce the concept of syllables.
