Magic e with a helps elementary school children learn what magic e does and how to spell words with that sound.

When there is an e at the end of the word, it often changes how the vowel sounds. When you say the word ‘hat’, the ‘a’ makes an ‘ah’ sound. If you add a magic e to the end of that word, ‘hate’, the ‘a’ makes an ‘ai’ sound. See if you can get top marks on these magic e with a words.
