Long u with -ew spellings
Today, we are going to learn about the -ew spelling of the Long U Sound: like in new, few and grew. We also copied the words in our Phonics Dictionary.
Nota para padres: los verbos to fly (volar), to grow (crecer), to blow (soplar), to draw (dibujar), y to know (saber) hacen pasados irregulares en inglés. Se tienen que aprender de memoria porque son verbos muy comunes. Lo positivo es que empleamos la misma forma del verbo para todas las personas.
