This Grade 2 r-controlled vowels worksheet compares the OR and ORE spelling patterns that both make the /or/ sound. Grade 2 students sort for, more, born, store, horn, and core into the right spelling column, then apply the patterns in fill-ins and true-or-false prompts. Recognizing silent-E endings builds careful spelling habits alongside solid decoding skills. Perfect Grade 2 practice for hearing small sound differences.
