The Short 'a' Sound.

Hi Friends,

Do you want to join us on a tour of our house today? We're going to be looking for things that contain the short 'a' sound, like in 'cat'. Go and collect some 'a' items and come back to see what we've found too.

We found a map!

Then we rummaged through the odds and ends box and found a woolly hat...

and a cap!

Last but not least, we found a mat:

What did you find? You might have found an apple, a tap or a rat (hopefully only a toy one!).

Join us next time for the long 'a' sound. In the meantime, see what other short 'a' things you can see on your travels.
