After spending many months focusing on short vowel sounds, we are now moving on to long vowels.  Today we learned about the very busy helper letter "e."  It always volunteers to help out and when it does, it keeps its mouth closed!  Sometimes we call it magic e or super e.

Here are some animated magic e stories and activities:
