Let’s go through each problem one by one. We’re looking for words that fit the picture and match the vowel pattern given (like a-e, e-e, i-e, etc.). The blanks are where we put the missing letters to complete the word.

1. Cake
Picture: birthday cake → word is “cake”
Pattern options: a-e or e-e
“Cake” uses
a-e → c _ k _ → c
a k
e
✔ Answer:
a,
e

2. Rice

Pattern options: i-e or u-e

3. Freeze
Picture: person freezing in ice → word is “freeze”
Pattern options: e-e or o-e
“Freeze” uses
e-e → fr _ z _ → fr
ee z
e? Wait — actually, it’s spelled f-r-e-e-z-e → so first blank is after “fr”, second after “z”. So: fr
e z
e
But note: the pattern is “e-e” meaning two e’s with something in between? Actually, in this worksheet, “e-e” means the silent e at the end making the first e long — like in “freeze”: the first ‘e’ is long because of the final ‘e’. So yes, “freeze” fits
e-e.
So: fr
e z
e
✔ Answer:
e,
e
Wait — let me double-check spelling: F-R-E-E-Z-E → positions:
After “fr” → next letter is ‘e’
After “z” → next letter is ‘e’
Yes.

4. Ride
Picture: kids riding? Or maybe “ride” as in horseback? But image shows two kids — perhaps “ride” isn’t right. Wait — look again: two kids facing each other — could be “argue”? No. Maybe “rude”? Not matching. Wait — pattern options: u-e or a-e. Word starts with r, then blank, d, blank.
Common word:
ride → r-i-d-e → but that would need i-e, not offered here. Options are u-e or a-e.
What about
rude? R-u-d-e → that fits
u-e → r
u d
e
Does the picture show someone being rude? One kid pointing finger — maybe scolding? Could be “rude”.
Alternatively, “rade”? Not a word. “Ride” doesn’t fit the patterns given.
So best fit:
rude → u-e
✔ Answer:
u,
e

10. Drive
Picture: person driving car → word is “drive”
Pattern options: e-e or o-e
“Drive” uses
i-e — wait, not listed! Options are e-e or o-e.
Hmm… “drove”? Past tense — d-r-o-v-e → that fits
o-e → dr _ v _ → dr
o v
e
And the picture shows a car — could be past action? Or maybe they accept “drive” even though pattern isn’t listed? But “drive” is d-r-i-v-e → needs i-e, which isn’t an option here.
Options are only e-e or o-e.
“Drove” is a valid word and fits
o-e.
Also, “dreeve”? Not a word.
So likely:
drove

o,
