syllables
With 'I learn syllables' children learn in a fun way to recognise
letters, name syllables, make words and increase
vocabulary. Once children reach four years of age, they
begin to learn about letters and read words. Lear ning to
split words into different syllables is a big step towards
learning to read words. 'I lear n syllables' is designed to
support this in six games, to be played alone or together.
Practice what you learn at school, at home!

For parents
These instructions are mainly intended for parents since the children will
need some supervision in the beginning to understand the exercises. It
is therefore important that you explain what they need to do before
starting a game.
The cards follow a logical sequence, becoming progressively more
difficult. It is advisable to start with game 1.
• Playing alone
• Before you start, show the complete puzzles to the child. This way
he/she can become familiar with the different words.
• Only choose a few puzzles with two-syllable words to start with. Set
aside the others for the time being. Once your child is familiar with
these words, you can include the other puzzles as well.
- GAME 1 Discover the syllables
• Spread the puzzle pieces on the table, with the image facing up.
• At his/her own pace, the child will look for the syllables to form a
word. He makes the puzzles and says for example: 'The word 'car.'
consists of only one piece (syllable) and the word 'hel-i-cop-ter'
consists of four pieces (syllables)'. This way you can discover all the
words with the child.
• To learn to recognise the syllables you can practice with the child
by clapping to the different sounds. For example: clap twice for the
word 'rock-et'.
- GAME 2 The sounds game
• Place the puzzle pieces on the table, with the picture facing up.
• Ask the child to find a puzzle piece with the sound 'et':
- "You can hear the sound 'et' in the word 'r ocket', but also in 'jacket'.
• Ask the child to find a puzzle piece with the sound 'hel':
- "You can hear the sound 'hel' in the word 'helicopter'.
• Ask the child to think of more words the sound 'hel':
- "You can hear the sound 'hel' in the word 'hello', but also in the wor d
'helmet'.
Extend the game:
• Let the child find things in their surroundings with other sounds.
- Look for something with the sounds: 'ta' (e.g. table), 'ap' (e.g apple).
