Hi, there! Welcome to your first ever e-learning day!
Click to listen--Long Vowels
We'll work on long vowels, those that say their names. Our focus will be on words with a sneaky e, although you also know that a vowel may say its name when two vowels go walking or when it is paired with a certain letter.
