Short Vowels

In our first few weeks, we have spent time getting to know each other and learn classroom routines.  We also have been reviewing numbers, letters, and sounds.  Our class started with short vowels.
 These "letter-picture-sound" cards will help us decode unknown words.
 Students are practicing their handwriting with each letter that is introduced.
