Long Vowel Silent "e" Pattern

    Good afternoon! Week starts and I´m back to continue telling you my experience. Today corresponded a particular lesson about long vowel silent "e" pattern. A silent letter e at the end of a word often signals a specific pronunciation of the preceding vowel letter, as in the difference between "rid" /ˈrɪd/ and "ride" /ˈraɪd. I mean, when silent e occurs at the end of an English word, it converts a vowel to its "long" equivalent, which means that it makes a vowel say its "name", except u, which has two long sounds, instead of one.
     These are the words discussed in the lesson and also dthe sentences that I wrote in Sentence Writing Practice:
                                               
    
     1.These pencil are yellow.
     2. This toy is mine and the rest are yours.
     3. I was late to the meeting.
     4. I save the wounded bird.
     5. We can not ride bike beacause it´s raining.
     6. The police sealed off the crime zone.
     7. The clown made a joke to children.
     8. Powder makes my nose itch. 
     9. Puppy is very cute.
     10. Lowder the volumen if you´re going to use the player.






Hundreds of English words end with a silent e, so  I´m going to give you a list of some I could find; i hope you find it useful and with this I say goodbye until tomorrow.
