Why get the bundle
- -ut pairs with -ug and -un. The bundle adds more ways to read these words, and an assessment shows if the u holds.
The problem
But, cut, gut: why 'put' doesn't rhyme with 'cut'
-ut seems simple, but 'put' breaks the rule. Children who learn the family may read 'put' as 'putt', and need to know it's different.
Put is the exception
Put looks like -ut but says /oo/. Children who trust the family read it wrong.
But vs. bit
Beginners swap short u and short i, reading 'but' as 'bit'.
Final t
The /t/ ends quickly. Children may skip it and read 'bu' for but.
Only regular -ut words appear, like but, cut and gut. Children read the chunk confidently, and 'put' can be taught as a special word.

Early readers
Fits children ready to meet the idea that some words don't follow the pattern.

Questions
Before you buy.
Does 'put' belong to this family?
No. It looks the same but sounds different. Teach it as a sight word and keep it out of the family.
Is 'but' a sight word too?
It's both. Children may know it by sight, but reading it as -ut helps them read cut and gut.
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 10 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 $3.50. No form, no questions.
