Why get the bundle
- Oa is easier with repeat. The bundle offers more formats and an assessment, and the ow product adds the other spelling.
The problem
Cloak, toad, oat: oa says long o, and ow takes the end
Oa says long o in the middle of words. Children read o and a separately and say 'oh-ah'.
Two letters, one sound
A child says /o/ /a/ for oa. The pair says long o.
Oa or ow
Both say long o. Oa is in the middle, and ow ends words like snow. Children spell by ear and guess.
Oat is short
'Oat' has oa at the start. Children expect the pair in the middle only.
Only oa words are included, such as cloak, toad and oat. Children see oa at the start and in the middle and read it as long o.

Questions
Before you buy.
Is oa always long o?
In most words, yes. A few, like 'broad', break the rule.
How do I know oa or ow?
Oa is usually in the middle, and ow is at the end. Children learn by seeing it often.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 9 pages. No account needed.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
What if it isn’t right for us?
Email support@suecurve.com within 30 days and we refund the full $1. No form, no questions.
