Diphthongs and complex vowels

English · Phonics & Word Reading · procedural

Read and spell words containing diphthongs and complex vowel patterns (ow, ou, ew, ue, ie, aw, au) and words ending in -y as a vowel sound

What mastery looks like

  • Read words with variable vowel sounds (e.g. 'ow' in 'cow' vs 'snow')
  • Decode words with diphthongs (e.g. 'cloud', 'blue', 'pie')
  • Read words ending in -y pronounced as /ee/ or /igh/ (e.g. 'happy', 'my')

Check your understanding

Can Diphthongs and complex vowels read words like 'town', 'cloud', 'flew', 'claw', or 'pie' — spotting the special vowel combinations and saying the right sound for each one?
