AU AW PHONICS NEW

When do we use the -au spelling?

We ~usually~ use the -au spelling when

• we hear the sound at the beginning of a syllable or word

• auto

• auction

• August

We also use the the -au spelling when

• we hear the sound in the middle of the syllable or word

• taut

• fraud

• fault

We learned last week that we use the -aw spelling

• when we hear the sound at the end of the syllable or word

• or when the sound is followed by an n or l

Both sounds count as one sound when we are listening for how many sounds are in a word.

Our auto is in the shop.

It is exciting to watch a rocket launch!

Wrap the cut with gauze.

Pull the rope taut to tie it in a knot.
