Handy for checking the list fits your child before printing, or for making your own games.

code, cope, hope, note, dote, globe, node, slope

How to use it

1. Read the short word with a short o.
2. Add the e and read the long-o word; write it on the line.
3. Contrast pairs aloud: hop / hope, rob / robe.
4. Talk about meaning: "hop" and "hope" look alike but mean very different things.

Watch out for

• Some o_e words are pronounced differently: come, some and love have an o_e shape but a short u sound — they're tricky words, not magic-e words.
• Glob and dote are less familiar words; explain the meaning so the reading makes sense.
• If hop + e is read as "hop-ee", remind your child the e is silent.

Who it’s for

Ages 6–7, after a_e and i_e.
