The problem

Crow, narrow, below: ow says long o here, and /ow/ in 'clown'

Ow has two sounds. Here it says long o, as in snow. Children who learned /ow/ in clown may read 'crow' as 'crowd'.

Two sounds, one spelling

Ow in 'crow' is long o, and in 'clown' it's /ow/. Children read one and apply it to the other.

Ow or oa

Both say long o. Ow ends words, and oa sits in the middle.

Narrow and below

In longer words like 'narrow' and 'below', ow is at the end of a syllable. Children read the first part and guess the rest.

Only ow words with long o are included, such as crow, narrow and below. Children see ow at the end of words and syllables.

Questions

Before you buy.

Why does ow have two sounds?

It's a spelling pattern. Children try one sound, and if the word doesn't make sense, they try the other.

Which sound is here?

Long o, as in snow and crow. The diphthong ow product covers the other sound.

How do I get the file?

The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 11 pages. No account needed.

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.

What if it isn’t right for us?

Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $1. No form, no questions.
