Phonics & Spelling Rules to Remember (Short ŭ)
Rule 1 • Short u (ŭ)
When u is closed in by consonants, it makes its short sound (/ʌ/), marked with a breve (˘): sŭng, swŭng, sŭn, ŭp.
Rule 2 • Long u vs. Short u
In mūsic (/mjuːzɪk/), u has its long sound (open syllable mu-sic). Only mark words that have the short sound!
Rule 3 • Compound Word
In bŭttercŭp (butter + cup), both syllables contain the short u sound: b-ŭ-t and c-ŭ-p.
1 Copy the following carefully. Read each poem with rhythm and transcribe neatly on the handwriting lines:
Selection 1: The Harebells 3 Lines
They sung and they sung,
And the harebells swung,
Keeping time to the music in the breeze.
— Wolston Dixey

Selection 2: The Flowers 2 Lines
One morning very early, before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup.
