Why get the bundle
- -ug is simple to practice in several ways. The bundle adds games and an assessment so short u holds.
The problem
Bug, dug, hug: u looks like n, and 'bug' has no 'ag'
-ug ends in a hard g. Children often mix u with a, o or n, and read 'bug' as 'bag' or 'bog'.
Bug vs. bag vs. bog
Three vowels, three words. Skipping the vowel produces the wrong one.
u and n
Upside down, u looks like n. 'Hug' can look like 'hng' to young eyes.
Hug and bug
Both words start with different letters but end the same. Children confuse b and h when reading fast.
Only -ug words are included: bug, dug, hug and others. With the vowel and ending fixed, children focus on the first letter.

Questions
Before you buy.
Why is short u confused with other vowels?
Short u, o and a sound close in some accents. Reading the vowel letter, not guessing, is the habit to build.
Are all the words real?
Yes, they're real words like bug, dug and hug. Children can check meaning to confirm they read right.
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 12 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 $5. No form, no questions.
