The Vowel Teams Song (The Long E Sound)

When vowels get together

They can make a team

And there's so many different kinds of these vowel teams

Sometimes a letter goes silent

Sometimes we get a new sound

And sometimes consonants join to help that vowel sound

Vowel teams vowel team vowel teams

Oooo

When E and E get together they can say E E E

When E and E get together they can say E E E

You can hear this in words like bee

Words like geese

And words like cheese

Vowel teams vowel team vowel teams

Oooo

When E and A get together they can say E E E

When E and A get together they can say E E E

You can hear this in words like sea

Words like beach

And words like meal

Vowel teams vowel team vowel teams

Oooo

When E and Y get together they can say E E E

When E and Y get together they can say E E E

You can hear this words like key

Words like honey

And words like turkey

Vowel teams vowel teams vowel teams

Oooo

When E and I get together they can say E E E

When E and I get together they can say E E E

You can hear this in words like weird

Words like ceiling

And words like receipt

Vowel teams vowel team vowel teams

Oooo

When I and E get together they can say E E E

When I and E get together they can say E E E

You can hear this in words like field

Words like cookie

And words like thief

Vowel teams vowel team vowel teams

Oooo

When vowels get together

They can make a team

And there's so many different kinds of these vowel teams

Sometimes a letter goes silent

Sometimes we get a new sound

And sometimes consonants join to help that vowel sound
