Why get the bundle
- The bundle includes each diphthong in several forms. Use it with the single-pair products to go deeper.
The problem
Oink, loud, jaw, boy: six vowel pairs that glide
Diphthongs, such as oi, oy, ou, ow, au and aw, glide from one sound to another. Children must know which pair they have.
Six spellings, three sounds
Oi and oy say /oi/. Ou and ow say /ow/. Au and aw say /aw/. Children must remember which spelling goes where.
Reading each letter
The habit of reading letter by letter breaks diphthongs. 'Boy' becomes 'bo-y'.
Position clues
Oy and aw end words, and oi and au sit inside. Children can use these clues to choose.
Words with all six diphthongs are mixed. Children check the vowel pair and read it as one gliding sound.

30 questions, one per slide.
Students type straight into the box — no printing, no cutting.

Questions
Before you buy.
When should we use this?
After children have met each pair on its own. It checks if they can tell them apart.
Are there other diphthongs?
These are the common ones. Others are less regular, so they're left for later.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PowerPoint file you can open in Google Slides.
Can I share it with my class?
Yes — one teacher can use it with their own students, this year and next. Sharing the file with other teachers needs a separate license.
Do I need Google Slides?
No. The file is a PowerPoint (.pptx). It opens in PowerPoint, and in Google Slides once you upload it to Google Drive.
What if it isn’t right for us?
Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $4.50. No form, no questions.
