This Grade 1 short vowels worksheet introduces short a and short i sounds through tracing, fill-in-the-blank, and true or false activities. First graders trace CVC words like cat, hat, map, pig, bit, and fig to build letter formation and sound awareness. Sentence fill-ins reinforce the short a and short i sounds in familiar contexts. True or false questions check that students can hear the difference between short a and short i middle sounds.
