About this worksheet
A short u vowel worksheet in color: kids color the six pictures with the short u sound among twelve, then change the vowel to u to turn hat into hut, cap into cup, bag into bug and more. Answer key included. Kindergartners can point under each word with a finger as they read it out loud.
Tips for using it
- Use one picture word per vowel as an anchor: apple, egg, igloo, octopus, umbrella.
- Ask your child to watch your mouth: short a opens wide, short o makes a round mouth.
- Color the vowel letters red when writing words so they stand out.
