Phonics or Words
Practice reading /or/ words, with this low prep game.
When teaching a struggling reader it is important to spend time on all the numerous sounds that letters make.
Over the past month, we have been deep into r-controlled vowels.
In fact, you really dont hear the vowel at all.
The /r/ is bossy and takes away the vowel sound.
R-controlled vowel
This game doesnt require any prep-work.
Just simply print and play.
Child one chooses which spot they want to go, read the word, and then cover-up that spot.
(Sometimes we used xs and os, and other times we used Do-A-Dot markers) 2.
Child two does the same thing.
At first, they may look intimidating to our young readers, but they are so doable.
phonics games for the classroom
The word corner divides into two syllables.
For this word you could easily hear that /for/ is one syllable and /go/ is the other one.
/For/ is an r-controlled vowel syllable and the /go/ is an open syllable.
This means there is not a consonant after that vowel and therefore the /o/ makes the long sound.

One more example is portray.
Once again say the word and let your little one say each syllable seperatly.
/Por/ is the first syllable and /tray/ is the second syllable.
Of course, /por/ is our r-contollred vowel syllable.
The /tray/ is a vowel team syllable.
This means we have two vowels that work together to make a different sound.
In this case, they make the long a sound.
