Let’s go through each picture and figure out the missing short “o” vowel.
1. First picture: a pot → p _ _ t → The word is “pot”, so we need “o” → p
o t
2. Second picture: dots (colored circles) → d _ _ ts → The word is “dots”, so we need “o” → d
o ts
3. Third picture: hot dog → h _ _ t d _ _ g → The words are “hot” and “dog”, so both blanks are “o” → h
o t d
o g
4. Fourth picture: dog → d _ _ g → The word is “dog”, so we need “o” → d
o g
5. Fifth picture: knot (a tied rope) → kn _ _ t → The word is “knot”, so we need “o” → kn
o t
6. Sixth picture: rocket → r _ _ cket → The word is “rocket”, so we need “o” → r
o cket
7. Seventh picture: clock → cl _ _ ck → The word is “clock”, so we need “o” → cl
o ck
8. Eighth picture: knob (on a door or drawer) → kn _ _ b → The word is “knob”, so we need “o” → kn
o b
9. Ninth picture: box → b _ _ x → The word is “box”, so we need “o” → b
o x
All of these words use the short “o” sound, like in “hot”, “dog”, or “box”.
Final Answer:
pot, dots, hot dog, dog, knot, rocket, clock, knob, box
