Silent E

During spelling, we learned that a silent final E has 5 jobs.
Job 1: Silent final E makes a vowel say it's 2nd sound (it's name).
Job 2: English words do not end in V or U, so add an E.
Job 3: Silent final E makes a C say "s" and a G say "j."
Job 4: Silent final E makes every syllable have a vowel.
Job 5: Silent final E has no job - He's just hanging out!


Watch this video. Which job of E is it describing?
