Word Work Wednesday

Finally we get the vowel sounds down - the short vowels - the long vowels - and then it happens.  Bossy R comes along.  Now those vowel sounds we were so sure about are not the same!  This always seems to cause my students to *stall* so I'm taking the bull by the horns car by the steering wheel to help them practice and master these sounds.  Since we will have to *park* here for a while I thought it might be fun to burn a little rubber while we're at it!


Click on the link below to download your parking lot, directions, and bossy r word cards.  Now all you need is a Hot Wheel from the bottom of the toy box and you're ready to roll.  I know.  I know.  The car puns were a bit much but I couldn't help myself.  I'll try to hit the brakes next time.  
Really I will.

  2. I posted and then tried to download it. It says, "It seems you don't belong here! You should probably try logging in?"

  9. Hi!
    I'm so glad you can use it! I'm not sure why it won't print or save. I went on to check it out and was able to save it. When it came up as a google doc then I clicked on file then moused down to click download. Once it downloaded I could click on it and save it. Email me at bethanymc@mindspring.com and I can send you the file if you can't get it to work : ) Thanks for stopping by The Bubblegum Tree!

    Blessings,
    Bethany
