Long and Short Vowels Activity

About This Product

The Long and Short Vowels Activity is a simple, engaging, and effective way for students to practice identifying vowel sounds and using them in context. In this two-part activity, students first read words in a table and color them, green for short vowels and orange for long vowels. Then, they complete sentences by filling in the blanks with the correct word from the list. It’s a great blend of phonics, reading comprehension, and decision-making.

This resource is ideal for 1st and 2nd graders, as well as ESL students, who are learning to distinguish between long and short vowel sounds. The color-coding makes the activity visual and fun, while the sentence work encourages careful reading and word choice.
