Grade 2 learners focus on the placement rule for oi and oy in this easy worksheet. A sorting task separates middle oi words like coin and point from ending oy words like boy and toy. Five fill-in-the-blanks and four true or false questions reinforce when each spelling appears. Hints remind students to look at the word position, and kid-friendly explanations explain the rule clearly, giving Grade 2 readers a strong foundation for spelling diphthong words correctly.
