How to teach “every”

Every has three beats, ev-er-y, and the final y says “ee”. Clap the beats together, then talk about things you do every day: brush teeth, eat breakfast, read a story. Make a mini chart titled “Every day I…” and let your child draw three things.

Game: Every one

Put a few groups of toys on the floor. Give instructions with every: touch every car, pick up every red block. Your child must find every single one. Then they give you an every challenge.

Practise next

Try “any” and “very” next: very hides inside every, and any is another word about amounts.

Questions about “every”

How many syllables are in every?

Most people say it with two or three: ev-ry or ev-er-y. Either is fine for reading.

Is every the same as all?

They are close. Every looks at things one by one (every child), while all looks at the whole group (all the children).
