• The word work activity focuses on the short /o/ vowel sound, which is the focus of our spelling words. Look at the picture. Say the word. Can you spell it? Write down each sound you hear. They all have the short /o/ vowel sound. Pick 1 word and write a sentence for it. Make sure your sentence begins and ends properly and has good details.
