Book 10 Intermediate Vowels Part Two

Book Ten Part Two

Eeeee! Intermediate Long Vowels

Miz Katz N. Ratz A Progressive Phonics book T.M.

Book 10 Part Two Table of contents O + silent “e” additions and revisions U + silent “e” E + silent “e” No pinching! (silent “e” and double consonants) The many spellings of the “ooo” vowel sound Mix it up Links List of words taught in this book (the final version of this book – Parts One and Two combined – has page numbers)

Note: The “O + silent E” section of the book was revised and updated. If possible, we recommend starting from scratch using the FINAL version of Book 10. (The final version also has page numbers.) But, if you are concerned about saving ink/paper, we have provided this Part Two of the Book in a way that saves you the most ink/paper. In this Part Two, we have removed as many “repeated pages” as possible, but if the sequence of a page was important, we have repeated it so that it’s in the CORRECT new sequence.
