- Cap → a
- Diamond → i
- Cup → u

Explanation:

This exercise helps children recognize short vowel sounds in words by associating them with images. Each image represents a word, and the task is to identify the short vowel sound in that word and match it to the correct vowel letter. This reinforces phonics skills, which are essential for early reading and spelling development.
