Looking at the "Long u" row, I can see four pictures with their corresponding words:
- duck (with a short 'u' sound /ŭ/)
- fruit (with a long 'u' sound /ū/)
- tune (with a long 'u' sound /ū/)
- bug (with a short 'u' sound /ŭ/)
For the long 'u' sound, I need to color the pictures that have the long 'u' vowel sound in their names. Based on this, "fruit" and "tune" should be colored since they contain the long 'u' sound, while "duck" and "bug" should not be colored as they have the short 'u' sound.
Now I'll summarize the solution for the entire worksheet.
The solution to this "Long Vowel Practice" worksheet is to color the pictures whose names contain the long vowel sound specified for each row:
Long a (/ā/) row:
- Color: cane, plane
- Do not color: bat, fan
Long e (/ē/) row:
- Color: key, bee, beach
- Do not color: pen
Long i (/ī/) row:
- Color: fire, tire
- Do not color: pin, chicken
Long o (/ō/) row:
- Color: cone, toad, rose
- Do not color: log
Long u (/ū/) row:
- Color: fruit, tune
- Do not color: duck, bug
This exercise helps students practice identifying long vowel sounds by matching them with appropriate words and pictures.
