2 Vowels Go Walking

We have been learning some long vowel spelling patterns such as 'ai' in 'train', 'ea' in 'read', and 'ay' in 'spray'.  To help us remember the rule that the first vowel has a long sound and the second is silent, we learned to sing the "Two Vowels Go Walking" song.  Then, we searched in books for examples of this spelling pattern and wrote the words we found on the board.  Coupled with this work, we've been doing lots of activities to practice!
