Becoming /ă/

Worksheet Description

The “Phoneme Substitution: Short Vowels to /ă/” worksheet is an engaging resource designed to enhance students’ phonemic awareness skills. Phonemic awareness is fundamental for successful reading and spelling, and this worksheet provides valuable practice in phoneme substitution.

In this worksheet, students are tasked with a specific phoneme substitution challenge. They must replace the short vowel sound in each word with the short /ă/ sound to create a new word. They then write the new word on the line provided.

This exercise encourages students to listen closely to the vowel sounds within words and understand how substituting a single phoneme can create a completely new word, reinforcing their phonemic awareness skills and vocabulary.
