Long Vowel Sound /ū: ui and ew Phonics Workbook: Science of Reading Aligned Spelling, Decoding & Fluency Practice for Grades 2-4

By Anju Singh

Long Vowel /ū/ Phonics Workbook - ui and ew is a Science of Reading aligned phonics workbook for Grades 2-4 that helps students master the long vowel sound /ū/ using the ui and ew spelling patterns.

Created by an Orton-Gillingham-certified teacher and aligned with structured literacy principles, this workbook provides explicit, multisensory practice so students can decode and spell long /ū/ words accurately and fluently.

This long vowel /ū/ workbook targets two key spelling patterns: ui (as in fruit, suit, juice) and ew (as in drew, flew, chew). Through clear, step-by-step activities, students learn to recognise these patterns, read them accurately in text, and use them correctly in spelling and writing.

Inside this workbook, students will practise:

-Word lists for both ui and ew spelling patterns

-Say-Tap-Map-Write phonemic awareness activities

-Read and write practice with long /ū/ words

-Word sorts separating ui and ew patterns

-Colour and trace activities to reinforce long /ū/

-Find and circle long /ū/ words in context

-Scrambled words to strengthen spelling and pattern recognition

-Word searches featuring ui and ew words

-Sentence writing with long /ū/ words

-A decodable fill-in-the-blank passage for connected text practice

These activities follow structured literacy and Science of Reading principles, giving students repeated, focused practice with long vowel /ū/ in both isolated words and connected text. Students build phonemic awareness, decoding accuracy, orthographic mapping, spelling confidence, and reading fluency.

Perfect for:

-Grade 2 and Grade 3 phonics instruction

-Grade 3 and Grade 4 struggling readers who need long vowel support

-Homeschool phonics curriculum

-Science of Reading classrooms

-Reading intervention and RTI groups
