*This Word Work activity can be done as independent student work, station work, or with a small group. Students choose a card, read the word, and then place it with the correct syllable type sorting mat(open/closed, closed/open, and open/open). Finally, students record the words for each syllable type on the recording sheet. If students are doing this independently, the recording page will give them accountability for their work. *This is made to complement the 2024 version of EL Skills Block.
