Let’s have fun with some friendly hound dogs who love to learn! They are here to teach us about vowel sounds. Are you ready to join them?
Sing along with the hound dogs:
A – E – I – O – U

Here come the Vowel Hound Dogs, woof, woof! They love to learn every day. Let’s see how they say their vowels:
When the hound dogs wag their tails, they say the short a sound:
ă – ă – ă wag
When they beg for a bone, they say the short e sound:
ĕ – ĕ – ĕ beg
When they dig in the dirt, they say the short i sound:
ĭ – ĭ – ĭ dig
When they flop their ears, they say the short o sound:
ŏ – ŏ – ŏ flop
When they play and jump, they say the short u sound:
ŭ – ŭ – ŭ jump
Let’s sing with the hound dogs one more time:
A – E – I – O – U
Ah ooh
A – E – I – O – U
Ah ooh
Great job learning with the Vowel Hound Dogs! Keep practicing your vowel sounds, and you’ll be a vowel expert in no time!
Vowel Sound Hunt: Go on a vowel sound hunt around your home or classroom. Find objects that start with each of the short vowel sounds: ă, ĕ, ĭ, ŏ, and ŭ. For example, look for an apple for the short a sound or an egg for the short e sound. Share your findings with your friends or family and make a list of all the objects you found!
Vowel Sound Art: Create a piece of art that represents each of the vowel sounds. Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to draw pictures of things that start with the short vowel sounds. For example, draw a cat for the short a sound or a bed for the short e sound. Display your artwork and explain the vowel sounds to someone at home.
Vowel Sound Storytime: Make up a short story using words that start with each of the short vowel sounds. For example, “An ant named Andy ate an apple.” Try to use at least one word for each vowel sound in your story. Share your story with a friend or family member and see if they can spot the vowel sounds!
