The OO sound can be either long or short. Mastering the correct pronunciation can be achieved when kids practice phonics and explore more words. Interactive games like words with OO games on SplashLean can help your kids distinguish between the short and long OO sounds with ease and engagement!

Both long and short groups of words are used frequently. A few short OO sounds include hook, shook, took, hood, etc. Long OO sounds are spoon, noon, too, cartoon, or soon.
The best and most fun way to do it is to pronounce them daily. Your child will enjoy making pronunciations. Let them identify the daily objects and pronounce the same.
Sit down with your child and watch videos focusing on the OO words. Read books with your child that contain the OO words. Continuously make them practice and review your child's progress.
Get some pictures with short and long OO sounds. For words with the short OO sound, just write OO in the word. However, for a longer OO sound, write OOOOOOO. This is a great way to show the difference between the two sounds.
Working from the sound level to the word level, then on to the sentence level, and finally to the passage level enables children to see how everything they're learning fits together. Visual representation has a powerful impact on the minds of kids in any grade.
