Boggle! /ew/,/oo/,/ue/ Words


Hello Gators! 
This week we started a new word study pattern. We are learning the /ew/, /oo/. and /ue/ pattern.  The sound formed by the combination of 2 vowel sounds in a single syllable is called a dipthong. 
Please create and then comment with 1 /ew/ word, 1 /oo/ word, and 1 /ue/ word. 
**Remember that each word must be at least 4 letters and you may only use the letters provided on the board.**
Happy Word Building! :)
