Teaching Long U: ue and ew

What it is

ue and ew are vowel teams for long u and the /oo/ sound: blue, glue, rescue, new, grew, chew.

When a child is ready

Teach them after u_e, so the child already knows u can say /yoo/ or /oo/.

If they struggle

Both spellings usually come at the end of a word. If the child stalls, cover the team, read the beginning, then add the team's sound. Keep a small word list for each spelling.
