The teams are -ea, and -ee. The letter &#8216;Y&#8217; also makes a long e sound when it is at the end of 2 syllable words, such as bab<strong>y<\/strong>, and carr<strong>y<\/strong>. There are also sets of words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings, called homophones. When this happens, it is very important to understand the meaning of the word to determine which spelling is correct. Please help your student understand the meaning of each word so that they can spell the correct homophone. For example, <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">meet<\/span> and <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">meat<\/span> sound the same, but are spelled differently and have completely different meanings as seen in the following sentences:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>My mom went to the store to buy <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>meat<\/strong><\/span> for dinner.<\/li>\n<li>My mom and dad went to <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">meet<\/span><\/strong> my teacher for conferences.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here are this week&#8217;s words:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>meat (food)<\/li>\n<li>beet (vegetable)<\/li>\n<li>queen<\/li>\n<li>baby<\/li>\n<li>mean<\/li>\n<li>team<\/li>\n<li>please<\/li>\n<li>only<\/li>\n<li>carry<\/li>\n<li>easy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Remember there are also 5 cold words on the test that are familiar but not specifically practiced.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Danny&#039;s &#039;ea\/ee&#039; - Prankster Cam (The Electric Company)\" width=\"648\" height=\"486\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9JZnni2b_6I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Geraldine the Giraffe learns \/ee\/ sound\" width=\"648\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qfM7Hz7US0U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ea for \/ee\/ sound - Mr Thorne Does Phonics\" width=\"648\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/U5KZNjV37Mo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"EE , EA and Y | Similar Sounds | Sounds Alike | How to Read | Made by Kids vs Phonics\" width=\"648\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FqgkdWrSPTc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"y as \/ee\/ - Mr Thorne Does Phonics\" width=\"648\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/naZWdYBJ70A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greetings! &nbsp; This week we are studying long e vowel teams.
