This Hard Kindergarten worksheet challenges learners to pick the word with the same short vowel sound. Four multiple choice items test short a, e, i, and u recognition with words like cat, hen, pig, and sun. Five fill-in CVC words (tap, leg, fin, mop, gum) extend the practice. This rigorous sheet helps Kindergarten readers master short vowel discrimination for CCSS RF.K.3b mastery.
