Vowel Sound: u

Which of these have /u/ as a middle sound? There are images of seven CVC words surrounding the letter u here, and scholars draw lines from the letter to words with the same middle phoneme. Be sure they know what these images are depicting before letting them try this. Next, learners get even more practice with this sound as they fill in the middle letter in six words, each accompanied by an image. Extend this by asking them to think of words with this initial sound and create their own parallel worksheet.
