Let’s go through each picture one by one and say the word out loud. We’re looking for words that have the short ‘e’ sound — like in “bed” or “pen”.
1.
Clock → says “clock” — that’s an ‘o’ sound, not ‘e’.
✘
2.
Bell → says “bell” — yes! That has the ‘e’ sound.
✔
3.
Turtle → says “turtle” — the first part is “tur”, which is more of a ‘ur’ sound, not short ‘e’.
✘
4.
Bed → says “bed” — perfect! Short ‘e’ sound.
✔
5.
Clothespin → says “clothes-pin” — the “pin” part has an ‘i’ sound, and “clothes” has a long ‘o’. No short ‘e’.
✘
6.
Brick → says “brick” — that’s an ‘i’ sound (like in “sit”), not ‘e’.
✘
7.
Leg → says “leg” — yes! Short ‘e’ sound.
✔
8.
Pen → says “pen” — definitely has the ‘e’ sound.
✔
9.
Pig → says “pig” — that’s an ‘i’ sound.
✘
10.
Hat → says “hat” — that’s an ‘a’ sound.
✘
So the pictures with the ‘e’ sound are:
- Bell
- Bed
- Leg
- Pen
Final Answer:
