 Building Your Spelling Skills, Part 21

The vowels are:

A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y

Why is 'y' sometimes a vowel, and sometimes a consonant?

Let's look at some examples.

      When 'y' is at the beginning of a word it acts as a consonant, not a vowel.

Key Point:

you
your
yes
yell

Great job! Let's learn another spelling pattern.

Lots of words start with 'dr'. The r sound blends with the d.

drop
dress
draw
saw
line
side

Can you spell them all? Try the practice. 😺
