The influence of the letter R can be quite assertive, causing vowels in R-controlled syllables to have distinct sounds compared to their usual pronunciations. Take the letter A, for instance, which commonly sounds like "ah" or "ay" in various situations. However, when paired with R in a word like "cart," its pronunciation changes! In this worksheet, second graders will strengthen their comprehension of letter-sound connections by vocalizing and categorizing eight words based on whether or not they are influenced by R.
