I use this rule for deciding between long and short vowels. If I can hear the name of the letter when I say the word out loud, like the a in cake or the o in ocean, then it is a long vowel. A lot of the time, the word has an e at the end of it, like in the words ice, cake, smoke, state. If the vowel in the word sounds like the description of the sound the letter makes, like ahhhh in cat or ehhh in net, then it is a short vowel sound. A, E, I, O, U and sometimes Y are vowels and if you can hear the letter, then it's a long vowel. If not, then its short.
