Which /oo/ sound - is it the /oo/ in look or the /oo/ in cool?

Begin by introducing the oo sound heard in the word look. It is referred to as the short oo sound  On index cards write the words: book, foot, look, shook, wood, brook, good, nook, stood, wool, cook, hook, retook, took, unhook.  Buy big googly eyes from the dollar store or draw them on a bright poster board. Review the sound and say each word emphasizing the sound
