Short a/Long a Sort- Either sort the words by short a/long a patterns or the child can match the short a/long a pair (pan/pane) .  \n2. Short a/Long a Matching-Match the words to the pictures. You can also use just the pictures to sort the words by vowel sound (either short a or long a sound) .  \n3. Short a/Long a Flip a Word-Use the templates provided to change the short a word into a long a word. Draw a picture to show the long a word. See pg. 6 of download for further directions.  \n4. What’s the Missing Word? Read the sentence and write the missing word that makes sense.  \n5.

Then, ask if he notices anything about the spelling patterns in each column. (The a column just has a single a in each word & the a_e column has a silent eat the end) .  \n•Let the child sort the words with support from you.  \n•You can also sort the words by matching the short a word to the longa word (such as tap/tape) .  \nHere is how the sorts will look when finished:  \na  \npan  \nmat  \nSam  \ncan  \nplan  \nvan  \nrat  \ncap  \ntap  \na_e  \npane  \nmate  \nrate  \ntape  \ncape plane same  \nvane  \ncane  \nOR  \ntap/tape pan/pane Sam/same rat/rate can/cane plan/plane cap/cape van/vane mat/mate  \n©2012 All Rights Reserved.  \n[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com)  \nShort a/Long a (a_e) Sort  \n\n| a | a   e | Can you also match each short a/long a pair? |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| pan | mat | pane |\n| mate | Sam | can |\n| rate | tape | cape |\n| plan | van | plane |\n| rat | cap | same |\n| tap | vane | cane |\n\n©2012 All Rights Reserved.  \n[www.thisreadingmama.co](www.thisreadingmama.com)[m](www.thisreadingmama.com)  \nShort a/Long a Matching  \n| [www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) |  | |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| tap | tape | cap |\n|  | First… Next…\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Last…\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>| |\n| cape | plan | plane |\n|  |  |  |\n| can | cane | mat |\n\n©2012 All Rights [Reserved. ](Reserved.  www.thisreadingmama.com)[ www.thisreadingmama.com](Reserved.  www.thisreadingmama.com)  \n\n| | \u003Cbr>| |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| mate | van | vane |\n| | | |\n| rat | rate | Sam |\n|  | | \u003Cbr>|\n| |  |  |\n| same | pan | pane |\n\nShort a/Long a Matching  \n©2012 All Rights [Reserved. ](Reserved.  www.thisreadingmama.com)[ www.thisreadingmama.com](Reserved.  www.thisreadingmama.com)  \nFlip a Word Directions  \nstaple Short a Word Cards here staple Paper for Pictures here  \n|  | e | |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\nWrite the short a words on the papers you stapled above.  \nDraw pictures of the long a words on the papers you stapled above.  \nDirections:  \nAfter the papers are stapled into place, ask the child to write 6 of the short a words from the sort on the paper at the left side (example:  \npan) .
