Step-by-step solution for: Writing long vowel worksheets | Worsheets library
The image you've uploaded is a Kindergarten Long Vowels Worksheet from K5 Learning, designed to help children practice identifying and writing words with long vowel sounds. The task asks students to:
> "Look at the pictures and say the word. Write the correct letter to complete each word."
Let’s go through each picture and word step by step.
---
- Picture: A girl in a green dress.
- Word: `_ngel`
- Correct letter: A
- Complete word: angel
👉 The picture shows a girl with wings, like an angel. The missing letter is a, making angel.
---
- Picture: A mailbox with a red flag up.
- Word: `mai_`
- Correct letter: L
- Complete word: mail
👉 The picture is a mailbox, which holds mail. The missing letter is l.
---
- Picture: A rake with leaves.
- Word: `rake`
- Missing letter: None — already complete.
- Wait! The word is written as `rake` — but it's not missing any letters? Let’s double-check.
Actually, looking closely:
- The word is shown as `rake`, but it's already fully written.
- But wait — perhaps there’s a typo or formatting issue. In some versions of this worksheet, the word might be `r_k` or similar. However, here it appears as rake, so likely no letter is missing.
But let’s consider: Is this a mistake?
No — actually, the word rake is correctly spelled and matches the picture. So it may just be that this one is already complete.
---
- Picture: A snail with a spiral shell.
- Word: `snai_`
- Correct letter: L
- Complete word: snail
👉 The picture is clearly a snail. The missing letter is l.
---
- Picture: A stack of white paper.
- Word: `pape_`
- Correct letter: R
- Complete word: paper
👉 The picture shows a stack of paper. The missing letter is r.
---
- Picture: A pink crayon.
- Word: `crayon`
- Missing letter? It says `crayon` — again, already complete?
Wait — looking carefully, the word is written as `crayon`, but it seems like it's supposed to have a missing letter.
But in this case, the word crayon is already fully spelled. However, the picture matches perfectly.
So possibly, the intended format was something like `crayo_` or `cray_n`, but here it's shown as `crayon`.
---
Let’s list all the words and what’s missing:
| Picture | Word Given | Missing Letter | Correct Word |
|--------|------------|----------------|--------------|
| Angel | _ngel | A | angel |
| Mailbox | mai_ | L | mail |
| Rake | rake | ✔ Complete | rake |
| Snail | snai_ | L | snail |
| Paper | pape_ | R | paper |
| Crayon | crayon | ✔ Complete | crayon |
But notice: "rake" and "crayon" are already complete. That suggests either:
- The worksheet has a formatting error, or
- Some versions have blanks in those words too.
However, based on the visible image, only the following need completion:
1. angel → add a
2. mail → add l
3. snail → add l
4. paper → add r
---
The missing letters are:
1. a → angel
2. l → mail
3. l → snail
4. r → paper
Note: "rake" and "crayon" appear to be already complete in this version.

This worksheet helps kindergarten students practice long vowel sounds (like the "a" in *angel*, "i" in *mail*, etc.). By matching the picture to the word and filling in the missing letter, children reinforce phonics and spelling skills.
For example:
- "angel" has a long a sound (/ā/), pronounced like "ay".
- "mail" has a long a sound.
- "snail" has a long a sound.
- "paper" has a long a sound.
- "crayon" has a long a sound (though not always obvious).
All these words feature the long 'a' sound, even though they use different spellings (e.g., -a-, -ai-, -ay-).
---
✔ Summary:
The correct letters to fill in are:
- a for angel
- l for mail
- l for snail
- r for paper
And the words rake and crayon are already complete.
