Complete the sentence with the correct short vowel word
Key Notes :
Vowels can make more than one sound. When a vowel comes before just consonants, the vowel usually does not say its name. It makes a short vowel sound instead.





✈️ When you spell a short vowel word, think about the sound the vowel makes. Then, choose the letter that matches the sound.
