Our spelling game is designed to help kids practice reading words with the “on” that makes the “uhh” sound. Here’s how to set up and play the game:](https://www.123homeschool4me.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Schwa-Sound-Practice-800x800.png)

Its a quick, relaxed, and neutral pronunciation that sounds a lot like a short u or uhh.

Think of words like wonderful and Monday.

The schwa helps us pronounce unstressed syllables quickly, making the main beats of spoken words easier to emphasize.

The schwa sound doesnt have a precise, standard pronunciation.

Because it sounds so similar to the short u, many dictionaries use the same symbol for both sounds.

Practice through play is a wonderful way for kids to master tricky sounds and words.
