Description: Phonics- Short Vowel u cvc word building with Letter Placement and a video song! Early word building with scaffolds of audios of the words segmented for the early learner. Your students can build each cvc word and hear the sounds of the letters as they build the word that matches the picture. Maria Montessori said that work that is self correcting is VERY beneficial for children. Children don't have to hear a teacher say that is wrong or correct them. They can correct themselves! The words "up" and "Uppy" have a very clear /u/ sound that is easy for children to hear and to segment. Many programs use confusing key words for short vowels such as using "egg" for the short vowel sound /e/. Most people pronounce the "e" in "egg" as a long "a" sound. It is soooo important to use clear and precise key words and pictures for the short vowel sounds as abcTutor does! An adorable visual of Uppy Umbrella is used for the short "u". Uppy Umbrella teaches your students the action to put their thumb up when saying his sound. This is a VERY effective technique to secure learning the short vowel sound /u/. There is also a visual of a beach for correct letter placement when the child is building the short vowel words. Some letters go up to the sun, some sit on the beach and some dig into the sand! Collect all of the short vowel cvc word building cards with a cast of loveable characters!
