📚 Rules to Remember • Week 11

Rule 1 • /ō/ Spelled <o-e>

Vowel-consonant-silent e makes o say its long sound /ō/ (home, hope, note, broke).

Rule 2 & [Deb] 3 • Alternate <o> Spellings

[Deb] /ō/ can be o, o-e, oa, oe, oo, ou, ough, ow; -se often says /z/ (chose, those).

Rule 4 • /ŭ/ Spelled <o-e> (Rare)

Silent e words where o says short /ŭ/ (love, a•bove, some, come, done); keeps words from ending in v.

Rule 5 • /ū/ Spelled <u-e> & Irregulars

u-e spells /yō͞o/ or /ū/ (use); irregular sight words include one (/wʌn/) and gone.
