Worksheet Description

The “Short and Long E Sound Circles” worksheet is an engaging phonics exercise designed to help students differentiate between short and long “E” sounds. This worksheet provides students with a series of picture prompts, and their task is to identify the vowel sound in each word by circling either “short” or “long” accordingly.

  1. Students will encounter various pictures, each representing a word containing either a short “E” sound (e.g., “hen”) or a long “E” sound (such as “bee”).
  2. Next to each picture, there are two options: “short” and “long.”
  3. Based on the vowel sound they hear in the word, students will circle either “short” or “long” to indicate the corresponding sound.
  4. This activity encourages active listening, phonemic awareness, and reinforces the distinction between short and long “E” sounds.
