This Grade 2 r-controlled vowels worksheet challenges readers with three-syllable r-controlled words. Grade 2 students analyze hamburger, supermarket, butterfly, and yesterday through multiple choice questions about syllables and spelling patterns, then use each word in a fill-in sentence. Breaking long words into smaller parts gives Grade 2 readers tools to decode any r-controlled word they meet. Ideal Grade 2 practice for reading longer everyday words aloud.
