What children learn in Level 18

In cake, the a says its name, a. The e at the end is silent, but it's the reason the a is long!
More a and e words: snake, game, grape, wave. The vowel and the e are partners, with one letter in between.
I and e work together too: bike, kite, five, smile.
Your turn! Spell bike, and don't forget the silent e.
Your turn! Sort the words by their vowel.
