When you learned to read, you were probably taught the vowels are "A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y"


But did you know that Y acts as a vowel WAY more often than it acts as a consonant?!


It's true!


Keep listening to learn all about the 4 sounds of letter Y:


  1. Consonant sound /y/ (yellow)
  2. Long vowel /i/ (my)
  3. Long vowel /e/ (candy)
  4. Short vowel /i/ (myth)


I also created an easy-to-remember sentence for your child so they know when Y will spell each different sound: My Stretchy Yoga Gym


If you have a kindergarten or first grade child learning to read, you NEED this tip!


*Note: This is also taught as "Y as a Chameleon" Rule
