Objective: To learn words where the sound  is spelled as i.   This sound is known as the long i sound.
Rule: The letter i often has the long sound in two-vowel words, or two-vowel combinations,  where the first vowel is i and the second vowel is silent.  For example, in the two-vowel word tire the i is long and the e is silent.  Also, in the two-vowel combination tie the i is long and the e is silent.

This CDROM course is like a private teacher because it is completely interactive.  Unfortunately, this Internet demonstration is not interactive.
