Common Mistakes to Watch For

• Mixing up short vowel sounds, especially short /e/ and short /i/, so children read 'pin' as 'pen' or 'bed' as 'bid' when sounding out unfamiliar words.
• Calling longer words like 'cake' or 'play' CVC words because they have a vowel in the middle, not realizing the silent 'e' or vowel team breaks the pattern.
• Skipping the middle vowel sound entirely when blending, saying 'c-t' instead of 'c-a-t' because the consonants feel louder and easier to pronounce.
