EY words: Download 5 free worksheets with this vowel team

Students can learn ey words with these fun worksheets to understand the concept of a digraph. This is a pattern of two letters representing one sound in English.

Also, the vowel team represents more than one vowel sound making it impossible to decode ey words. Therefore, ey words are sight words that must be learned, as they cannot be sounded out.

In the word monkey, ‘ey’ sounds like long ‘e’, but sounds like long ‘a’ in grey.
