About this resource
Description
The ew and ui vowel teams spell the same long-oo sound two different ways, and telling the two spellings apart is a real second-grade decoding job. This EW UI Vowel Worksheet gives students focused practice with that sound spelled ew in words like chew, drew, grew and stew, and with the very same sound spelled ui in juice, suit, bruise and cruise. Once a child can hear the sound, what is left is a spelling question: which two letters belong in this word? Sorting real words into the two spellings is the fastest way to build that habit.
This printable vowel digraphs worksheet puts ten words in a word box at the top of the page and two labelled columns underneath, one headed ew and one headed ui. Students read each word, decide which vowel team spells the sound they hear, and write the word on a line in the matching column. Two labelled pictures, a screw and a bowl of fruit, sit under the columns as anchors children can look back at whenever they get stuck. It works as morning work, as a phonics center, as homework, or as a quick check after a vowel team lesson, and the answer key makes it easy to grade in seconds.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- A ten-word ew / ui sorting activity with two labelled anchor pictures
Three things make this EW UI Vowel Worksheet worth the ten minutes it takes. First, it separates listening from spelling: every word on the page makes the same vowel sound, so children stop guessing by ear and start looking at the letters. Second, writing each word by hand instead of circling it builds the spelling memory that shows up later in independent writing. Third, the two anchor pictures give every student a place to start, so a child who is unsure still has a way into the task.
Away from the page, try a word hunt: give children five minutes with a familiar book and ask them to list every ew and ui word they find. A pocket chart works well too, since partners can sort word cards, swap, and check each other. At home, listen for the sound at the table with juice and stew, or in the toolbox with a screw, and say each word out loud while spelling it in the air.
