Filling In The Blanks

Worksheet Description

The “Short and Long U Worksheet” is an effective resource designed to help students practice distinguishing between short and long U vowel sounds. The worksheet presents students with a series of pictures, and beneath each image, there is an incomplete word. Students are tasked with saying the name of each picture and then filling in the missing letters to complete the word, differentiating between short and long U sounds.

1. Students will examine each picture carefully, sounding out the word associated with it.
2. They will then determine whether the word contains a short or long U sound.
3. Finally, students will complete the word by adding the missing letters to match the identified sound.

This exercise not only enhances phonics skills but also reinforces spelling and word recognition.
