Use the correct article: a or an

key notes :

✨Use the Correct Article – a or an ✨

🌟 Articles are small words we put before nouns. They help us talk about things clearly.

🟢 Use a before words that begin with a consonant sound (b, c, d, f, g…).

👉 Example:

• 🐱 a cat
• 📕 a book
• 🍎 a ball
• 🚗 a car

🔵 Use an before words that begin with a vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u).

👉 Example:

• 🍏 an apple
• 🥚 an egg
• 🦉 an owl
• 🍦 an ice-cream
• 🐒 an umbrella

🎯 Quick Tip!

✨ It’s not about the letter, but the sound.

• ✅ an hour (because ‘h’ is silent → sounds like vowel)
• ✅ a horse (because ‘h’ is sounded → consonant sound)

🖼️ Visual Memory Trick 🎨

• 🅰️ + 📕 = a book
• 🅰️🅽 + 🍎 = an apple
• 🅰️🅽 + 🥚 = an egg

🌈 Remember!

• a = one thing, before consonant sound 🚗🐕📚
• an = one thing, before vowel sound 🍎🥚🦉
