Sounds in words

Circle the words that have the ‘igh’ sound.

Owls hoot at night

And sleep in the light.

Circle the words that have the ‘oo’ sound.

The girl took a look

In the big, red book.

Circle the words that have the ‘oa’ sound.

The happy goat

Had a big, thick coat.

What other words

can you think of that
have the ‘igh’ sound?
