Find the short e word
Free printable Pre-K English worksheet for "Find the short e word" — practice vowel sounds (reading foundations). No-prep, print or assign online.
Pre-k children scan a group of words and find the one that contains the short-e vowel sound, sharpening their awareness of the /e/ phoneme in the context of written words. Teachers and parents can use it as a listening-and-reading challenge where students say the words aloud to hear which one has the short-e sound. It belongs to the vowel sounds substrand and builds the targeted vowel awareness that underpins CVC word decoding.
Learning objectives
- Identify the short-e vowel sound in a set of words and select the correct one
- Distinguish the short-e sound from other vowel sounds when words are spoken and read
- Apply vowel awareness to locate the word with the target short-e sound from a group
