📚 Part 1: Learning About Vowels

The Five Vowels: A, E, I, O, U

Why are vowels important? Vowels are special letters that help us make words. Every word needs at least one vowel sound! Without vowels, we couldn't speak or read properly.

Short Vowels: These make quick, soft sounds.

• A as in "cat" • E as in "bed" • I as in "sit" • O as in "dog" • U as in "cup"

Long Vowels: These say their own letter name.

• A as in "cake" • E as in "bee" • I as in "bike" • O as in "boat" • U as in "cube"
