Then, students have been going around the room &#8220;hunting&#8221; for words with that vowel in it. Yesterday we looked for &#8220;a&#8221; words and today we looked for &#8220;o&#8221; words. Students first wrote their words down on a dry erase board or clip board. Then, after about five minutes of hunting, we came back together to share our words. As as class, we listened to the words being shared and decided if they made a long vowel sound, short vowel sound, or a different sound. Deciding which sound the vowel makes can be a little challenging at first, but as we continue to practice this skill and tune our ears to hear them, students will be able to do this more naturally.
