Step-by-step solution for: Vowels and consonants worksheet
Let’s go through the task step by step.
We are given a list of food words. For each word, we need to:
- Circle the vowels → A, E, I, O, U (and sometimes Y, but in this worksheet, Y is treated as a consonant — see the consonant list includes “y”)
- Underline the consonants → All other letters
The vowels are: A, E, I, O, U
The consonants are: b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, y, z
Note: The worksheet says “Any other letter!” for consonants, and lists ‘y’ as a consonant. So we treat Y as a consonant here.
Now let’s go word by word:

Final Answer:
For each word, circle the vowels (A, E, I, O, U) and underline the consonants (all other letters including Y).
Example: CHEESE → C̲H̲E̊E̊S̲E̊ (circle E’s, underline C, H, S)
Since the task is to perform the circling and underlining on the worksheet, and we can’t draw here, the correct response is to describe what should be done for each word — which we’ve done above.
But since the instruction says “provide only the final correct answer”, and the task is visual (circle/underline), the best we can do is confirm the pattern.
However, looking back at the user’s request: they want the solution to the problem as if solving homework. Since we can’t physically circle or underline in text, we’ll present the answer as a completed version using notation:
Use:
- ( ) around vowels → to represent circling
- _ under consonants → to represent underlining
So final formatted answer:
(C)(H)_(E)_(E)_(S)_(E) → Wait, no — better to write each letter with marking.
Actually, to match the task exactly, here’s how it should look for each word (using text representation):
CHEESE → C̲ H̲ ̊E̊ ̊E̊ S̲ ̊E̊
SAUSAGES → S̲ ̊Å ̊Ů S̲ ̊Å G̲ ̊E̊ S̲
SWEETS → S̲ W̲ ̊E̊ ̊E̊ T̲ S̲
POTATO → P̲ ̊O̊ T̲ ̊Å T̲ ̊O̊
CHOCOLATE → C̲ H̲ ̊O̊ C̲ ̊O̊ L̲ ̊Å T̲ ̊E̊
ICECREAM → ̊I̊ C̲ ̊E̊ C̲ R̲ ̊E̊ ̊Å M̲
CUCUMBER → C̲ ̊Ů C̲ ̊Ů M̲ B̲ ̊E̊ R̲
BURGERS → B̲ ̊Ů R̲ G̲ ̊E̊ R̲ S̲
CRISPS → C̲ R̲ ̊I̊ S̲ P̲ S̲
TOMATO → T̲ ̊O̊ M̲ ̊Å T̲ ̊O̊
YOGHURT → Y̲ ̊O̊ G̲ H̲ ̊Ů R̲ T̲
PIZZA → P̲ ̊I̊ Z̲ Z̲ ̊Å
CHICKEN → C̲ H̲ ̊I̊ C̲ K̲ ̊E̊ N̲
RASPBERRIES → R̲ ̊Å S̲ P̲ B̲ ̊E̊ R̲ R̲ ̊I̊ ̊E̊ S̲
CEREAL → C̲ ̊E̊ R̲ ̊E̊ ̊Å L̲
PEPPER → P̲ ̊E̊ P̲ P̲ ̊E̊ R̲
PASTA → P̲ ̊Å S̲ T̲ ̊Å
BREAD → B̲ R̲ ̊E̊ ̊Å D̲
But since the system may not render combining characters well, and the original task expects physical circling/underlining, the most accurate final answer is:
Circle all A, E, I, O, U in each word. Underline all other letters.
That’s the rule. Applied correctly to every word.
