Ten pages on the vowel teams whose sound is neither long nor short: ou and ow as in cloud and cow, oi and oy as in coin and boy, au and aw as in sauce and saw. 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 ou words through a maze, read sentences to choose the word that fits, and play roll and read.
Teach the teams in pairs that make the same sound: ou and ow, oi and oy, au and aw. A word ending in the sound usually takes ow, oy or aw (cow, boy, saw), and a word with the sound in the middle often takes ou, oi or au, which helps children choose when they spell.
Say "ow!", "oy!" and "aw!" with your child and find words with each sound around the house: couch, toy, straw.
