What children learn in Level 33
- The last consonant sounds! Some of these letters are a little tricky.
- V makes /v/. /v/, van!
- W makes /w/. /w/, worm!
- Y makes /y/. /y/, yo-yo!
- Z makes /z/. /z/, zebra!
- Q almost always comes with U. Together, Q and U make /kw/, like the start of question: /kw/!
- X makes /ks/. You hear it at the end of words, like fox: /ks/!
- Try it with a grown-up! Make a buzzing /z/ like a bee, then a /v/ like a car. Can you feel the difference?
Georgia's K-12 English Language Arts Standards:
