1. Write down the word.
2. Identify the two vowels in the word.
3. Pronounce the word and determine if each vowel has a separate vowel sound.
4. If both vowels have a separate vowel sound, circle the word.
5. Underline the letters that represent the two different vowel sounds.
Let's go through each word together:
2. "audio" - Circle the word. Underline 'a' (represents the "ah" sound) and 'io' (represents the "oo" sound).
3. "faith" - Circle the word. Underline 'ai' (represents the "ay" sound).
4. "greed" - Circle the word. Both 'ee' and 'ea' represent the same "ee" sound, so it does not fit the criteria.
5. "journal" - Circle the word. Underline 'ou' (represents the "oo" sound).
6. "rodeo" - Circle the word. Underline 'eo' (represents the "ee" sound).
8. "either" - Circle the word. Underline 'ei' (represents the "ee" sound) and 'e' (represents the "uh" sound).
9. "medium" - Circle the word. Both 'iu' and 'iu' represent the same "ee" sound, so it does not fit the criteria.
10. "southern" - Circle the word. Underline 'ou' (represents the "uh" sound) and 'ern' (represents the "er" sound).
11. "beach" - Circle the word. Underline 'ea' (represents the "ee" sound).
12. "pound" - Circle the word. Both 'ou' and 'ou' represent the same "ow" sound, so it does not fit the criteria.
13. "pioneer" - Circle the word. Both 'io' and 'ee' represent different sounds, but they do not appear consecutively, so it does not fit the criteria.
14. "duo" - Circle the word. Both 'uo' and 'o' represent the same "oo" sound, so it does not fit the criteria.
15. "poison" - Circle the word. Underline 'oi' (represents the "oy" sound).
16. "waiter" - Circle the word. Both 'ai' and 'ei' represent different sounds, but they do not appear consecutively, so it does not fit the criteria.
17. "grain" - Circle the word. Both 'ai' and 'ai' represent the same "ay" sound, so it does not fit the criteria.
18. "group" - Circle the word. Underline 'ou' (represents the "oo" sound).
19. "stadium" - Circle the word. Underline 'ia' (represents the "ee" sound) and 'iu' (represents the "yoo" sound).
20. "mean" - Circle the word. Underline 'ea' (represents the "ee" sound) and 'e' (represents the "uh" sound).
21. "freeze" - Circle the word. Underline 'ee' (represents the "ee" sound).
22. "video" - Circle the word. Underline 'i' (represents the "ee" sound) and 'eo' (represents the "ee" sound).
