Sythesizing: Synthesizing is when we learn new things by putting things we already know together in another way. Putting the pieces together in a new way. 

Mr. McGaughey taught us to say synthesizing by breaking it up into small pieces. We said syn- the ( the e is like left) -size-ing.

Taking 4 sounds we know and putting them together in a new way shows that we were synthesizing. And now we can say it too.
