2.54 Magic E Rule Chant
When a word has a vowel and ends in E
Ends in E, ends in E
The sound of the vowel is the same as its name
The same as its name
When a word has a vowel and ends in E
Ends in E, ends in E
The sound of the vowel is the same as its name
The same as its name
2.55 The Vowel A and the Magic E
Sometimes A says /a/, /a/, /a/
/a/, /a/, /a/, - /a/, /a/, /a/
And sometimes A says /A/, /A/, /A/
Do you know why?
When a word has an A and ends in E
Ends in E, ends in E
The sound of the A is the same as its name
A, A, A, let’s see
/A/ as in bake and /A/ as in cake
/A/ as in name and /A/ as in game
In bake and cake and name and game
The A sounds like its name
2.56 The Vowel I and the Magic E
When a word has an I and ends in E
Ends in E, ends in E
The sound of the I is the same as its name
I, I, I, let’s see
When a word has an I and ends in E
Ends in E, ends in E
The sound of the I is the same as its name
I, I, I
/I/ as in bike and /I/ as in kite
/I/ as in five and /I/ as in nine
In bike and kite and five and nine
The I sounds like its name
