Exploring Vowel Teams and Their Sounds

The video tutorial explains the phonics rule 'When Two Vowels Go Walking,' where the first vowel in a pair typically says its name while the second remains silent. It provides examples of vowel pairs such as 'ai' in 'rain' and 'ea' in 'beat,' demonstrating how the first vowel is pronounced. The tutorial reinforces this concept with multiple examples, helping learners understand and apply the rule in reading and pronunciation.
