Coloring Quest

Worksheet Description

The “Short and Long E Sound Coloring” worksheet is a fun and interactive phonics activity designed to help students practice differentiating between short and long “E” sounds. Through coloring, students will strengthen their phonemic awareness skills and reinforce their ability to identify these vowel sounds.

1. Students will encounter a series of picture-word pairs, each representing a word containing either a short “E” sound (like “pen”) or a long “E” sound (such as “bee”).
2. Below each picture-word pair, there are two boxes labeled “short” and “long.”
3. Based on the vowel sound they hear in the word, students will color the corresponding box. For words with a short “E” sound, they’ll color the “short” box, and for words with a long “E” sound, they’ll color the “long” box.
4. This activity engages students in actively listening to vowel sounds, associating them with words and images, and reinforcing their understanding of short and long “E” sounds.
