How to Teach R-Controlled Syllables
If your learners can read words like bird, her, and fork, they may be ready to learn how to apply that knowledge to read longer words like yogurt, hermit, and burger.
Unfortunately, it’s not that always simple for our struggling readers. It’s important that we teach R-Controlled syllables in an explicit way, breaking down the process of decoding so all our readers can be successful. That’s what you’ll find in this video, How to Teach R-Controlled Syllables. I encourage you to…
1. Watch the Video to Learn:
