Answer:

There are six types of syllables:

Step-by-step explanation:

A closed syllable ends in a consonant. The vowel has a short vowel sound, as in the word bat.

An open syllable ends in a vowel. The vowel has a long vowel sound, as in the first syllable of apron.

A vowel-consonant-e syllable is typically found at the end of a word. The final e is silent and makes the next vowel before it long, as in the word name.

A vowel team syllable has two vowels next to each other that together say a new sound, as in the word south.

A consonant+l-e syllable is found in words like handle, puzzle, and middle.

An r-controlled syllable contains a vowel followed by the letter r. The r controls the vowel and changes the way it is pronounced, as in the word car.
