Problem Overview:
The task involves identifying and circling the letters in each word that make the sound at the end of the word (ending digraphs). Additionally, students are asked to categorize words based on their ending sounds and match pictures to the corresponding words.
Step-by-Step Solution:
####
1. Read Each Word and Circle the Letters:
We need to identify the ending digraph in each word and circle the letters that make the sound at the end.
-
1. duck: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
2. pack: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
3. stick: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
4. back: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
5. neck: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
6. rock: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
7. clock: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
-
8. quick: The ending sound is "ck," which makes the /k/ sound.
- Circle:
ck
####
2. Categorize Words Based on Ending Sounds:
Next, we categorize the words based on the short vowel sounds they end with.
-
List words with short-e sound: None of the words end with a short-e sound.
-
List words with short-i sound: None of the words end with a short-i sound.
-
List words with short-a sound: None of the words end with a short-a sound.
-
List words with short-u sound: None of the words end with a short-u sound.
####
3. Match Pictures to Words:
Finally, we match the pictures to the corresponding words.
-
Picture 1: A duck.
- Matching word:
duck
-
Picture 2: A goose.
- Matching word:
neck (since the goose has a long neck)
-
Picture 3: A stick.
- Matching word:
stick
-
Picture 4: A backpack.
- Matching word:
back
-
Picture 5: A pencil.
- Matching word:
quick (since the pencil can be used quickly)
-
Picture 6: A rock.
- Matching word:
rock
