Exploring Welded Sounds and Vowel Teams

Miss Rosman introduces a phonics lesson focusing on welded sounds, vowel teams, and R-controlled vowels. The lesson begins with a review of welded sounds, followed by an introduction to vowel teams, where two vowels make one sound. The session concludes with a focus on R-controlled vowels, where the 'R' changes the vowel sound. Students are encouraged to practice these concepts with various examples.
