Vowel teams oi and oy do not come apart for sounding them out. Oi and oy are not long or short; instead, they have their own special sound.
1) Practice the oi oy sound in this rhyming family:
boy Roy joy destroy employ
toy ahoy enjoy annoy coy means shy
2) Listen to the oi oy sound in: loyal, royal, voyage
3) Practice the oi oy sound in these rhyming families:
coin join
purloin means to steal; My dog purloined my sandwich when I wasn't looking.
Tortoise and porpoise are ancient words with their own sounds; truly rare for oi oy.
I created the Vowel Power book to make all the vowel lessons easy for your child. All my books teach with stories, skills pages, and lots of color pictures.

Nothing is more fun than being a star reader. Have a great day, Mary Maisner
