Based on the analysis of the worksheet, here is the solution to the problem.
The task is to circle all the words that contain a long vowel sound. The worksheet defines five types of long vowels with examples:
-
Long 'a': as in *cake*
-
Long 'e': as in *tree*
-
Long 'i': as in *mice*
-
Long 'o': as in *rose*
-
Long 'u': as in *cube*
By examining each word in the list and applying these rules, the following words have long vowel sounds:
From the first column:
-
snow: Contains a long 'o' (as in "rose").
-
music: Contains a long 'u' (as in "cube").
-
cold: Contains a long 'o' (as in "rose").
-
wave: Contains a long 'a' (as in "cake").
-
feet: Contains a long 'e' (as in "tree").
-
light: Contains a long 'i' (as in "mice").
-
ride: Contains a long 'i' (as in "mice").
From the second column:
-
bone: Contains a long 'o' (as in "rose").
-
grape: Contains a long 'a' (as in "cake").
-
sew: Contains a long 'o' (as in "rose").
-
sheep: Contains a long 'e' (as in "tree").
-
cage: Contains a long 'a' (as in "cake").
-
cute: Contains a long 'u' (as in "cube").
