Magic Super "e" Lesson


This video would be a wonderful addition to teach students about the "magic e". Not only can the silent "e" be magic but also super. It can be difficult to teach this concept to young children; grades Kindergarten-1st grade. I think this video would be great for students to actually see how the "e" can make vowels say its name. The phrases in the video are also catchy which students can learn to help them memorize the teaching strategy best. This video will be best when teaching a word with the vcv (vowel, consonant, vowel) combination. I could even stop it at times to let the students say the words and think of other words that may rhyme or have the same long vowel sound.
