Explain that this lesson is about words with the consonant-le syllable. Write the words nimble and grumble on the board. Point to nimble and read it aloud. Point to -ble. Say: We pronounce this syllable /bəl/. The e is silent. Explain that consonant-le syllables always come at the end of words with more than one syllable.
