Explanation:
-
Short Vowels: These are typically pronounced as their basic sounds (e.g., "a" as in "cat," "e" as in "bed," etc.).
-
Long Vowels: These are pronounced as the name of the letter (e.g., "a" as in "cake," "e" as in "bee," etc.).
By analyzing the images and the context of the words, we can determine the correct vowels and their sounds. The circles are colored accordingly based on whether the vowel is short or long.
Final Answer:
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ccc}
\text{1. Bag: a (S)} & \text{2. Crab: a (S)} & \text{3. Snake: a (L)} \\
\text{4. Ban: a (S)} & \text{5. Rainbow: a (L)} & \text{6. Rose: o (L)} \\
\text{7. Pie: i (L)} & \text{8. Lips: i (S)} & \text{9. Snow: o (L)}
\end{array}
