Let’s go step by step to find the missing vowel in each CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) word.
We’ll look at each picture, say the word out loud, and listen for the middle sound — that’s the vowel we need to fill in.
---
1.
b_g → Picture is a bag. Say “bag” — middle sound is /a/ →
bag
2.
b_t → Picture is a bat. Say “bat” — middle sound is /a/ →
bat
3.
h_m → Picture is ham (sliced meat). Say “ham” — middle sound is /a/ →
ham
4.
f_n → Picture is a fan. Say “fan” — middle sound is /a/ →
fan
5.
c_t → Picture is a cat. Say “cat” — middle sound is /a/ →
cat
6.
m_p → Picture is a map. Say “map” — middle sound is /a/ →
map
7.
p_d → Picture is a pad (like a notepad). Say “pad” — middle sound is /a/ →
pad
8.
t_g → Picture is a tag. Say “tag” — middle sound is /a/ →
tag
9.
m_d → Picture is a mad girl (angry face). Say “mad” — middle sound is /a/ →
mad
Wait — let’s double-check #9. The picture shows a girl with an angry expression. That’s “mad”. Yes, middle vowel is /a/.
All of these words use the short ‘a’ sound!
So every blank should be filled with the letter
a.
Final Answer:
bag, bat, ham, fan, cat, map, pad, tag, mad
