Educational worksheet for identifying long and short vowel sounds in English words.

The task in the image is to circle the words that have a long vowel sound. The instructions specify:

- Circle words with:
- long "a" as in *cake*
- long "o" as in *rode*

We are given two columns of words, and we need to identify which ones have long vowel sounds.
