✦ Lesson 7 · Say and spell
Spelling: ea or e?
Be careful! The same short sound /e/ (as in bed) can be written with e or with ea. You have to learn the words.
Written with ea
healthy · heavy · weather · bread · head · breakfast · ready · sweat
Written with e
helmet · bed · planet · desk · seven · tent · red · pen
🎧 Say it fast
I eat healthy bread for breakfast, then I put my helmet on my head.
