The image is a
"Long Vowels Word" worksheet designed to help learners identify words with
long vowel sounds. Each row corresponds to a long vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u), and contains four pictures with labels underneath. The task is likely to
identify which word in each row has the correct long vowel sound matching the column header.
Let’s go through each row and determine which word actually has the
long vowel sound indicated by the row label.
---
🔹 Row 1: Long a
Words:
cane, bat, fan, plane
-
cane → pronounced /keɪn/ →
long a ✔
- bat → /bæt/ → short a
✘
- fan → /fæn/ → short a
✘
- plane → /pleɪn/ →
long a ✔
Wait! Both
cane and
plane have long a sounds.
But let's check:
-
cane: "a" is long →
yes, as in "cake"
-
plane: "a" is long →
yes, as in "name"
So both
cane and
plane have long a.
However, in this context, the goal might be to
find the word that matches the long vowel sound for that row — so
both cane and plane are correct.
But maybe the task is to
circle or mark the word with the long vowel.
Let’s assume the task is to
identify the correct word(s) that match the long vowel sound.

🔹 Row 2: Long e
Words: pen, key, bee, beach
- pen → /pen/ → short e
✘
- key → /kiː/ →
long e ✔
- bee → /biː/ →
long e ✔
- beach → /biːtʃ/ →
long e ✔
So
key,
bee, and
beach all have long e.
But note:
pen has short e.
So only
key,
bee, and
beach are correct.
---
🔹 Row 3: Long i
Words: re, pin, tire, chicken
- re → /riː/ →
long i ✔
- pin → /pɪn/ → short i
✘
- tire → /taɪr/ →
long i? Wait: "i" is pronounced as
long i? Actually, "tire" is pronounced /taɪr/, which is
long i sound (like "eye")
✔
- chicken → /ˈtʃɪk.ən/ → short i
✘
So:
-
re → long i
✔
-
tire → long i
✔
- pin → short i
✘
- chicken → short i
✘
Both
re and
tire have long i.
Note: “re” is a bit unusual — it's often used in words like "there", but here it stands alone. In pronunciation, "re" = /riː/ → yes, long i.
---
🔹 Row 4: Long o
Words: cone, toad, rose, log
- cone → /koʊn/ →
long o ✔
- toad → /toʊd/ →
long o ✔
- rose → /roʊz/ →
long o ✔
- log → /lɔːɡ/ → short o (or sometimes /lɑːɡ/) →
not long o ✘
So
cone,
toad, and
rose have long o.
“Log” has a short o sound.
---
🔹 Row 5: Long u
Words: duck, fruit, tune, bug
- duck → /dʌk/ → short u
✘
- fruit → /fruːt/ →
long u ✔
- tune → /tuːn/ →
long u ✔
- bug → /bʌɡ/ → short u
✘
So
fruit and
tune have long u.

✔ Summary of Correct Words per Row:
| Long Vowel | Correct Words with Long Vowel |
|------------|-------------------------------|
|
a | cane, plane |
|
e | key, bee, beach |
|
i | re, tire |
|
o | cone, toad, rose |
|
u | fruit, tune |

🎯 Likely Task:
The task is probably to
circle or highlight the word(s) in each row that have the
long vowel sound matching the row.
Alternatively, if the activity is about
identifying which word does NOT fit, then you'd circle the one with
short vowel.
But based on the title
"Long Vowels Word", it's most likely asking to
select the words with long vowels.
---
✔ Final Answer:
For each row, the words with
long vowel sounds are:
-
Long a:
cane,
plane
-
Long e:
key,
bee,
beach
-
Long i:
re,
tire
-
Long o:
cone,
toad,
rose
-
Long u:
fruit,
tune
> ⚠️ Note: Some words may seem tricky (e.g., "re" and "tire"), but phonetically they do represent long vowel sounds.

💡 Educational Tip:
This worksheet helps children practice distinguishing between
short and long vowel sounds. For example:
- Short a: "bat", "fan"
- Long a: "cane", "plane"
- Short e: "pen"
- Long e: "key", "bee"
It reinforces
vowel patterns like:
-
silent e (e.g., "key", "bee", "tire")
-
ai,
ay,
ea, etc.
Let me know if you'd like a version where you circle the correct answers!
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of long vowel words.
