This week we are working with long vowel digraphs. Vowel digraphs are a combination of two letters (one of which is a vowel). This combination of letters creates one sound with the two letters. The sound they create is a long vowel sound (when the vowel "says its name"). Remember to have your child notice the PATTERN of the words.
Many children have heard the rhyme "If two vowels go a walking the first one does the talking" This means that when there are two vowels together, the first one "says its name".
As you are having your children practice the words, have them identify the vowel digraph in the word. If they want to go the extra mile (or if these spelling words are easy for them), have them identify this same pattern in other words they see.
