Vowel Song
(Long and short sounds)
chorus:
A,E,I,O,U….
Sometimes Y’s a vowel too.
A,E,I,O,U….
Sometimes Y’s a vowel too.
A,E,I,O,U….
Sometimes Y’s a vowel too.
A,E,I,O,U….
Sometimes Y’s a vowel too.
Just as we build home with windows,
We use vowels to build words too.
Vowels sounds can be long or short sounds,
We’ve got a vowel rap song for you.
There are a few general rules for vowels and their sounds;
So listen up! Pay attention!
Here are some that’ve been around.
When a word ends with silent E
Or two vowels walk along
The first vowel’s long and says its name.
You’ll hear this in our song.
Mat + e = mate
Fat + e = fate
Bat (squeeze in i) = bait
pant (squeeze in i) = paint
rid + e =ride
hid +e = hide
did (squeeze in e) = died
lid (squeeze in e) = lied
chorus:

If they are found inside short words
