Question: 1 / 400

Both children and adults find it more effective to divide syllables into:

Codas and nuclei

Headers and footers

Onsets and rimes

In literacy instruction, dividing syllables into onsets and rimes is a strategy used to help both children and adults recognize and manipulate phonological elements in words. Onsets are the initial consonant sounds or consonant clusters in a syllable, while rimes are the vowel and any consonants that follow. This division helps individuals better understand the structure of words, aiding in decoding and spelling skills.

Options A, B, and D do not align with the typical practice in phonological awareness instruction related to syllable division. Option A references codas (ending sounds) and nuclei (central vowels), Option B refers to headers and footers which are not common terms in literacy instruction, and Option D talks about prefixes and suffixes which are morphemes that are not typically divided when working on syllabication.
