Why get the bundle
- Short a is the first of five. The bundle adds cards, games and assessment so children read the same words in many ways before moving on.
The problem
Bat, bag, can: reading short a without 'buh-a-tuh'
Short a is the first vowel most children meet, and a good place to learn blending. Letter-by-letter sounding often slows a child down.
Sounding out, no blending
A child says /b/ /a/ /t/ and stops. Pushing the sounds together into 'bat' is the leap.
Extra vowel sounds
Saying 'buh' for /b/ makes 'buh-a-tuh'. Clipped consonants blend more smoothly.
Name vs. sound
Children who learned the letter name 'ay' may say it for a. The short sound /a/ is a separate thing.
Pages use short a words only, such as bag, bat and can. With one vowel, children can focus on blending sounds into a word.

Questions
Before you buy.
Why only short a?
One vowel at a time reduces confusion. Short a is common and easy to say, so it's a good first choice.
What if my child sounds out but can't blend?
Try continuous sounds first, like /mmm/ and /sss/, and slide the sounds together. Short practice helps more than long.

Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
