Duck Dynasty: Duck Calls and Syllables

This week in my class we are using our names for all sorts of things...how many letters, how many vowels, how many consonants, and how me syllables. 

 I taught my kids how to use their 'duck bill' to find how many syllables are in their name...all they had to do was hold their lips together like a duck and instead of quacking, we buzzed out our names while the other hand was pressed against our voice box so that we could feel the vibrations.  Each new vibration was a new syllable.  Worked like a charm!  

Here is a quick little freebie for you.  Give those duck bills a try and see how it works for you.  Let me know!
