Record their words on the board so they are able to see where the vowel is. -SmartBoard Vowel Sort Activity -Complete this as a whole class activity. Students should take turns sorting the pictures into the correct columns depending on the vowels they hear. Pull down the boxes to check when the sort has been completed -Video- Complete the class with showing the What Vowel Do You Hear? video. Explain to the students that they will see three various objects that all have the same vowel sound. The person on the video will say the name of each object; the students need to then listen for each sound they hear. -Pass out the numbered piece of paper.

Homework
Making a Poster: Short Vowel Review (See Rubric)

Essential Question:
What sound do the short vowels say?

Accommodations
Vowel Sort and What Vowel Do You Hear? Rather than complete these as a whole group, students can set up on a computer to complete these individually. Students may also need objects they can actually hold and move to sort rather than sorting on a SMARTBoard. For What Vowel Do You Hear? Students may need to see the word after they hear it rather than seeing the word at the very end.

them where number 1 is. Write a u after number one. -Start the video. Once the video is over, pass out stickers for them to check their word with and view the video with them to hear if they were correct in their answers. Have the students check their own papers by placing a sticker or star (if they know how to draw one) next to the ones they answered correctly. (Show them how to check their papers first.) Be sure to write each group of words on the chalkboard so they are able to see where the vowels are in each word.
