The short 'a' sound
by Erica
Here was a conversation I had with my class today:
Me: "Okay 1st graders, lets make a list of words that have the short 'a' sound."
1st graders: "ham, cat, apple"
Me: "Good, keep going."
1st graders: "at, bat, ask"
Me: "Anyone else?"
Joey: "I have one!"
Me: "Ok"
Joey: "V"
Me: "V? The letter v?"
Joey: "Yes, V!"
Me: "Joey, do you hear the 'a' sound in the letter v?
Joey: "Yes"
Me: "hum. Interesting."
