Explanation:
We need to fill in the missing vowel in each word using either a short vowel (S) or long vowel (L), and then color the circle accordingly.
Let’s go one by one:
1.
b__g → bag
- “a” is short here (like in *cat*). So:
a, choose
S.
2.
cr__b → crab
- “a” is short again. So:
a, choose
S.
3.
sn__ke → snake
- “a” is long (says its name, like *cake*). So:
a, choose
L.
4.
b__an → bean
- “e” is long (like *see*). So:
e, choose
L.
5.
r__inbow → rainbow
- “a” is long (pronounced /eɪ/). So:
a, choose
L.
6.
r__se → rose
- “o” is long (like *go*). So:
o, choose
L.
7.
p__e → pie
- “i” is long (says its name). So:
i, choose
L.
8.
l__ps → lips
- “i” is short (like *sit*). So:
i, choose
S.
9.
sn__w → snow
- “o” is long (like *go*). So:
o, choose
L.
Now let’s double-check each word spelling and vowel sound:
- bag → a = short
✔
- crab → a = short
✔
- snake → a = long
✔
- bean → e = long
✔
- rainbow → a = long
✔
- rose → o = long
✔
- pie → i = long
✔
- lips → i = short
✔
- snow → o = long
✔
All correct.
Final Answer:
bag (a, S), crab (a, S), snake (a, L), bean (e, L), rainbow (a, L), rose (o, L), pie (i, L), lips (i, S), snow (o, L)
