Adventures in Reading & Fun with Phonics #28 -Abby and short /a/ review.

Today we review short the /a/ sound you hear in Aaaaaaby. (Abby) We continue to work on the distinction of short and long vowels. Practicing in reading and learning all of the nuances of phonics and phonics rules takes time. The rules are just a tool to help your child make sense of the sounds and how to differentiate which sound to make as they read the word. Some children may begin reading with out the rules and that's great too. Have fun practicing the short /a/ sound, all of the short vowels, and the vowel rules this week. Happy Reading! :)
