Silent E | Phonics Song for Kids | Jack Hartmann

Silent e song. This song about silent e teaches that silent e at the end of a word makes the vowel before it say the long vowel sound while the e remains silent. The silent e song can help your students learn how an e at the end of a word causes the vowel to make a long sound. Sing along as we give you examples for each of the vowel sounds as silent e changes the word and has the vowel say the long vowel sound while silent e stays silent. Silent e jumps over a consonant to help the vowel say its own name.

Lyrics
Silent e, silent e
Come on and learn with me
Silent e, silent e

Silent e
When silent e is at the end of some words
It's called silent e when it can't be heard
Silent e jumps one consonant back to the vowel
And tells it to say the long vowel sound

Here's the word at

Add silent e to the end of the word
Now you have ate
A says ā
Silent e

Silent e, silent e
Will help you write and read

Here's the word hop
O says ŏ
Add silent e to the end of the word
Now you have hope
O says ō

Here's the word cut
U says ŭ
Add silent e to the end of the word
Now you have cute
U says ū
Silent e

Silent e, silent e
Come on and learn with me
Silent e, silent e
Will help you write and read
Shhhh
