Note:
Sight words cannot be pronounced entirely by phonetic analysis. Children learn to recognize sight words such as the, I , and a.
5. Learn the sounds of the long vowels. Learn to sound two-vowel words. When there are two vowels in a word, the first vowel says its long sound, and the second vowel is silent.
