Bossy R Video
This week our focus is on r controlled vowels (bossy r). This is when a word contains a vowel followed by the letter r. The r tells the vowel which sound to make.
For example, the sound of each vowel changes from its original sound when an r follows after it.
er, ear, ir, and or all make the errr sound. (Our spelling words focus on these four categories. Have the kids sort the words for better understanding!)
e--> er nerve
ear--> early
i--> ir third
o-->or worm
