Mastering the distinction between short and long vowel sounds can be challenging for new readers. However, utilizing word families can greatly aid in this process. Word families enable children to recognize patterns in letters and sounds, facilitating quicker and easier word decoding. In this activity, children will focus on short "o" word families, providing them with an opportunity to strengthen their understanding of these sound patterns. By knuckling down and engaging with these word families, children can enhance their reading skills and fluency.
