How to Use This Pack

Nine pages on four vowel teams second graders learn: oo as in moon, ew as in screw, igh as in night and ow as in snow. Children circle the letters that spell each picture's vowel sound, write the missing team in a word, cut out words to sort by team, match words to pictures, circle the word that names a picture, follow the oo words through a maze, read sentences to choose the word that fits, and play roll and read. The teams first graders learned, ai, ee, ea and oa, come up beside the new ones for review.

In the Classroom

Make a key word card for each team (moon, screw, night, snow) and keep them on the wall. Before the sort, read a few words aloud together and ask which key word has the same sound. Point out that oo and ew can spell the same sound, as can ow and oa.

At Home

Go on a word hunt in a book or on signs: who can find an oo, ew, igh or ow word first? Read each one aloud together.

Tips for Success

  • Two letters together can make one vowel sound
  • oo and ew both say the sound in moon
  • igh says the long i in night
  • ow can say the long o in snow
  • Check the answer key for each word
