This educational resource provides a comprehensive approach to decoding multi-syllabic words by employing chunking strategies. Learners will discover how to break words into manageable parts, focusing on vowel sounds and applying long vowel rules. Explore essential exceptions, such as handling doubled consonants, specific digraphs, and blending sounds within challenging word structures. Developed by Therese Duffy in 2011, this guide supports educators and students in enhancing reading skills and building confidence with unfamiliar terms.

Standard RW 1.2 Objective: Decode multi-syllabic words Decode the unfamiliar word with many syllables using “chunks”. The Main Rule is: Stop each chunk after the vowel sound and try the Long Vowel Sound The Three Exceptions are: • Add the next sound to the chunk if it is a doubled consonant. • rabbit becomes first, ra bbit, and then is adjusted to rabb it • Two common exceptions occur: • One is the spelling “oll” which can contain either a long or short vowel sound (dollar, roller) • Second is the spelling “all” which can contain either a short or schwa vowel sound (mallard, taller.)

Standard RW 1.2 Objective: Decode multi-syllabic words Decode the unfamiliar word with many syllables using “chunks”. The Main Rule is: Stop each chunk after the vowel sound and try the Long Vowel Sound The Three Exceptions are: 3. Add the next sound to the chunk if the following chunk is “hard to say“. Sometimes two sounds have to be moved, as with the word gently. It breaks apart naturally not as ge-ntly nor as gen-tly, but as gent-ly, because neither ntl nor tl are permissible beginning blends in English words. Co-nsta-ntly will never occur, nor will con-stan-tly. It will tend to naturally chunk constantly as con-stant-ly Created by Therese Duffy 2011
