This printable gives an explanation of long and short vowel sounds with examples of one way each can be written. There is also a section of words to practice determining whether the words have long or short vowel sounds. The words chosen are deliberately difficult and/or obscure so that the students will focus on the spelling patterns rather than the word meanings.
