First graders read and write longer two-syllable r-controlled words including farmer, garden, sister, order, harvest, birthday, morning, brother, and winter across nine fill-in sentences about daily life and seasons. A matching activity asks kids to connect each bigger word to its smaller base word, showing how farmer hides farm. Hints encourage children to listen for the bossy-r sound in each syllable and notice how endings like -er add meaning to familiar root words.
