Phonics Sorter

Worksheet Description

The “Short A vs. Long A Sorting” worksheet is a valuable resource designed to assist students in distinguishing between short and long “A” vowel sounds in words, honing their phonics skills.

1. The worksheet includes a word box with various words. Each word may contain either the short “A” sound (e.g., “cat”) or the long “A” sound (e.g., “cake”).
2. Students are tasked with sorting these words into two columns: “Short A Words” and “Long A Words.” They must determine the vowel sound in each word and place it in the appropriate category.
3. This exercise helps students practice listening for and identifying vowel sounds, a crucial skill for reading and spelling.
