June 14, 201411 yr My daughter's foreign teacher gave the class a list of short vowel words to learn. Can you spot the mistakes? Cat; mat; leg; men; pig; dig; toy; cow; run; cup. I don't understand your question at all. These are all short vowel sounds. Nothing wrong with it. No vowel here does the sound as it would when you're saying the ABC.....Couldn't you Google it before? Your foreign teacher was just using a,e,i,o,u vowels that are short ones.-

June 15, 201411 yr Author <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Did the kids learn the sounds? Well yes, the lesson was about how to read/ pronounce short vowel sounds, not diphthongs. Some of the sounds were taught incorrectly, which could lead to reading difficulties.
