  • Short Vowels Skill Explainer

Break the Code with Short Vowels

In this activity, students practice recognizing, sounding, blending, and reading words with short vowels, and then read the word aloud.

Reading Universe is made possible by generous support from Jim & Donna Barksdale; the Hastings/Quillin Fund, an advised fund of the Silicon Valley Community Foundation (opens in new window); the AFT (opens in new window); the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation (opens in new window); and three anonymous donors.
