1. The Rule: What is the Magic 'e'?

The Magic 'e' sits at the end of a word. It is silent (you don't hear it), but it makes the vowel before it say its LONG sound (its name). Living vs

| Without Magic 'e' (Short sound) | With Magic 'e' (Long sound) | | :--- | :--- | | cap (short 'a') | cape (long 'a' - ay sound) | | her (short 'e' – er sound) | here (long 'e' – hee sound) | | kit (short 'i' – ih sound) | kite (long 'i' – eye sound) | | not (short 'o' – o as in hot) | note (long 'o' – oh sound) | | cub (short 'u' – uh sound) | cube (long 'u' – yoo sound) |

Hot Tip: If a word has a single vowel, then a consonant, then a silent 'e' – the first vowel is long. (Pattern: V-C-e)
