Let's solve this spelling chart step by step. The task is to:
1.
Say the name of the picture shown in the last column.
2.
Fill in the missing letter in the middle box (the second column) so that the three letters form the correct word.
3.
Spell the word using the three letters.
We'll go row by row.

Completed Chart:
| c | a | t | 🐱 (cat) |
| b | a | t | ⚾ (bat) |
| h | a | t | 🎩 (hat) |
| m | a | t | 🪞 (mat) |
| r | a | t | 🐭 (rat) |

Explanation:
Each word ends with "
t", and starts with a consonant (
c, b, h, m, r), and all of them have the
middle vowel "a". This is a fun way for children to practice CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words and phonics.
✔ All answers are
"a" because the words are:
cat, bat, hat, mat, rat — all follow the pattern _a_t.
