Teaching English Story - Grade 3 boy helps teach vowels!

LONG vowels say their own name:
A as in  tape;  E as in feet; I as in like



O as in goat; U as in cube



SHORT vowels say the short sound in words below:
a as in tap; e as in pet;  i as in it, mitt;


o as in doc; u as in cub


This next story will help you remember VOWELS in the alphabet.


Once upon a time a mom had borrowed sugar from her neighbour. She asked her little boy to return it the next day.
The little boy took the cup of sugar to the neighbour saying,
" A E, I O U (and sometimes Y is a vowel)  some sugar!"
So the vowels are "A E, I O U (and sometimes y)." this is a story as told to our class when Noel was about grade 3 or 4. I never forgot your wonderful little helpful hints about how to remember the vowels in the alphabet.
 
(Noel is a grown-up man with a family of his own now)
