Let me work through this worksheet step by step.
The task is to:
1. Write the words underneath each picture
2. Circle the pictures with the long "e" sound
Let me identify each picture and determine if it has a long or short "e" sound:
Row 1:
- Picture 1: Seal - The word "seal" has a long "e" sound (the "ea" makes the long e sound)
- Picture 2: Net - The word "net" has a short "e" sound
- Picture 3: Key - The word "key" has a long "e" sound (the "ey" makes the long e sound)
Row 2:
- Picture 4: Beet - The word "beet" has a long "e" sound (the "ee" makes the long e sound)
- Picture 5: Meat - The word "meat" has a long "e" sound (the "ea" makes the long e sound)
- Picture 6: Bed - The word "bed" has a short "e" sound
Row 3:
- Picture 7: Monkey - The word "monkey" has a short "e" sound at the end
- Picture 8: Ten - The word "ten" has a short "e" sound
- Picture 9: Bee - The word "bee" has a long "e" sound (the "ee" makes the long e sound)
Now let me verify which ones have the LONG "e" sound:
1. Seal ✓ (long e)
2. Net ✗ (short e)
3. Key ✓ (long e)
4. Beet ✓ (long e)
5. Meat ✓ (long e)
6. Bed ✗ (short e)
7. Monkey ✗ (short e)
8. Ten ✗ (short e)
9. Bee ✓ (long e)
So the pictures with the long "e" sound that should be circled are: seal, key, beet, meat, and bee.
Final Answer:
Words for each picture:
1. seal
2. net
3. key
4. beet
5. meat
6. bed
7. monkey
8. ten
9. bee
Pictures to circle (with long "e" sound): seal, key, beet, meat, bee
