Short 'U' Sound!

Our sound of the week is the short 'u' sound! What words do you know with the short 'u' sound in them?

Long 'O' Sound!

Our 'Sound of the Week' this week (and last week!) is the LONG 'o' sound!

What letters together make a long 'o' sound?
o-e as in rose
oa as in boat
ow as in snow
oe as in toe

And sometimes, all you need is the letter 'o'!

Challenge: Can you think of an 'o-e' word, an 'oa' word, an 'ow' word AND an 'oe' word?

Some videos about the 'long o' sound:





How many 'oa' words can you spot in THIS video?:
