This Grade 2 r-controlled vowels worksheet tackles the trickiest challenge: ER, IR, and UR all make /ur/. Grade 2 students pick the correct spelling for girl, nurse, different, and dirty, then apply the right patterns in fill-ins. Learning that spellings must be memorized one word at a time turns sound-alike traps into confident spelling victories. This Grade 2 sheet teaches the correct spelling every time.
