5002 Praxis Practice Test Practice Question
A reading teacher asks students to write examples of open-syllable words. Which of the following words written by students correctly fits the pattern?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Open-syllable words end with a vowel that typically has a long sound. In this case, "She" fits the pattern as it ends with the vowel 'e,' allowing the 'sh' to form a long 'e' sound.
Option A, "Bad," ends with a consonant and has a short 'a' sound, disqualifying it as an open syllable. Option B, "Hit," also ends with a consonant and features a short 'i' sound, making it an incorrect choice. Lastly, Option D, "Tab," ends with a consonant and has a short 'a' sound as well, failing to meet the criteria for an open-syllable word.
