Does the Y Sound Like Long I?

Did you know that the letter y is a consonant, but sometimes acts as a vowel? In this phonics worksheet, second graders will read a list of words and determine whether the y at the end of the word makes a long i sound. Then, students will read two sentences, identify the words that end with y as long i, and draw a picture to match the sentence.

This worksheet will help second graders become more familiar with how the letter y can sound at the end of a word. Being able to distinguish the different sounds of the letter y can allow students to read and spell unfamiliar words with accuracy and confidence.
