Phonograms and Vowel Chart
|
These are phonics symbols that we cover in class. The kids are expected to have mastered these
sounds by the end of the year. You will find an interpretation of the accented vowel sounds at the bottom of the page. The th with the line through it is the th sound as in the word "those."
