Say the words out loud...Listen particularly to the vowel...if you are not sure, then say it again, emphasizing the vowel sound. When you have worked on this, then please repost and we will be happy to help you with corrections.
Path, Pan -- Laugh, Matter (short a)
Here, Heat, Pronunciation -- Weird, Cheese (long e)
Saw -- Taught (au)
Wide -- File, Eye (long i)
Hit -- _____
Look -- Put (Stool is close -- but not exactly the same)
Table, Pronunciation -- Weight
Since there are slight regional differences in pronunciations, these may not be exactly the same as what a dictionary shows. Please check back here to see if other teachers have any differences of opinion.
To determine whether words in column A have the same vowel sound as the words in column B, we need to analyze the vowel sounds in each word. Here's how you can identify the vowel sounds in the words:
1. Path - The vowel sound in "path" is the "a" sound as in "cat."
2. Here - The vowel sound in "here" is the "ee" sound as in "tree."
3. Saw - The vowel sound in "saw" is the "aw" sound as in "law."
4. Wide - The vowel sound in "wide" is the "ai" sound as in "ride."
5. Hit - The vowel sound in "hit" is the "ih" sound as in "sit."
6. Look - The vowel sound in "look" is the "oo" sound as in "book."
7. Stool - The vowel sound in "stool" is the "oo" sound as in "food."
8. Luck - The vowel sound in "luck" is the "uh" sound as in "butter."
9. Heat - The vowel sound in "heat" is the "ea" sound as in "eat."
10. Table - The vowel sound in "table" is the "ei" sound as in "day."
11. Pronunciation - The vowel sound in "pronunciation" is the "uh" sound as in "butter."
12. Pan - The vowel sound in "pan" is the "a" sound as in "cat."
Now, let's compare the vowel sounds in each word pair:
1. Path and Butter - These words have different vowel sounds ("a" in "path" and "uh" in "butter").
2. Here and Weight - These words have different vowel sounds ("ee" in "here" and "ei" in "weight").
3. Saw and Trouble - These words have different vowel sounds ("aw" in "saw" and "uh" in "trouble").
4. Wide and Put - These words have different vowel sounds ("ai" in "wide" and "uh" in "put").
5. Hit and File - These words have different vowel sounds ("ih" in "hit" and "ai" in "file").
6. Look and Weird - These words have different vowel sounds ("oo" in "look" and "ee" in "weird").
7. Stool and Laugh - These words have different vowel sounds ("oo" in "stool" and "ah" in "laugh").
8. Luck and Taught - These words have the same vowel sound ("uh" sound).
9. Heat and Cheese - These words have different vowel sounds ("ea" in "heat" and "ee" in "cheese").
10. Table and Prune - These words have different vowel sounds ("ei" in "table" and "oo" in "prune").
11. Pronunciation and Eye - These words have the same vowel sound ("uh" sound).
12. Pan and Matter - These words have different vowel sounds ("a" in "pan" and "ae" in "matter").
Therefore, the words in column A that have the same vowel sound as the words in column B are:
1. Luck (from column A) has the same vowel sound as Butter (from column B).
2. Pronunciation (from column A) has the same vowel sound as Eye (from column B).
Hope this helps!
