Long Vowels / ai, ea, igh, oa, ue / a-e, e-e, i-e, o-e, u-e / ā, ē, ī, ō, ū / Phonics Compilation!

Hey everyone! Let's dive into the world of vowels and discover how they can be super powerful in words! Vowels like 'a,' 'e,' 'i,' 'o,' and 'u' have a special trick when they're long—they say their own names like 'cake' or 'bike.' Sometimes, we use a macron, which is a little line over the vowel (ā, ē, ī, ō, ū), to show it's long. And here's the really magical part: when a sneaky silent 'e' hangs out at the end of a word, like in 'make,' it makes the vowel before it say its name longer! Cool, right? Also, when two letters team up to make a sound together, like 'ea' in 'eat,' we call that a digraph. Understanding these tricks helps us read and write lots of awesome words!
