In this lesson, we learned the sounds associated with the following letters. Repeat each sound aloud and listen carefully to ensure that you are saying the correct sound.

Vowel

i – itch – /ĭ/

Consonants

d – dog – /d/

g – goat – /g/

l – lamp – /l/

n – nut – /n/

r – rat – /r/

w – wind – /w/

v – vest – /v/

ff – bluff – /f/

We also learned about a spelling generalization called the Floss Spelling Guide.

The Floss Spelling generalization states that a one syllable word, where f, l,s, z follows a short vowel, double the f, l, s, z

Examples: buff, fill, cross, jazz
