Teachers R US: Bossy R Picture Sort

https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Bossy-R-picture-sort-5464256

Are you looking for an activity that will keep your entire class engaged? This activity helps your students to learn the Bossy R while working with each other.

Before using this activity, I like to use my Bossy R Picture and Word Sort or Bossy R Word Sort. This will give students the opportunity to practice with the skill before giving them just the pictures.

When I do this activity, I will first start by placing ar, er, ir, or, ur in a pocket chart. I will place them in a way that will allow them to be categorized. Then I will show the pictures and ask students which category the picture should go under. I make sure that all of the pictures go under the correct category. The next thing I do is take all of the pictures out of the pocket chart and give one card to each student. I will then call one student at a time to come put the picture under the correct category. I like doing my lesson in this order because it gives students the opportunity to work with me before I have them try to figure it out on their own.

Here some more detailed information about this activity.

This activity comes with:

Black and White Word Cards

-I made a card for every Bossy R word used in this activity. You can either send the cards home or create games using the cards like Memory or Go Fish.

Lesson Plan

-I created a lesson plan that could be used for this literacy activity. The lesson plan comes with common core state standards, and ideas on how to use this activity.

Video Ideas and Books that Teach Bossy R

-I wrote down videos that cover Bossy R. I also wrote down books and activities that you can read or do that will help emphasize Bossy R.

Here is an example on how to use this activity: I play several games with word cards as a whole group. The main games that I play that my students love is mingle and 2 circle game. Mingle is where you give each student a card. You start the game by saying “mingle”. Students will walk around the room until you say stop. When you say stop, students are to find the closest person to them to partner up with. They read their card to them and then switch cards. I repeat this game until students lose interest. The 2 circle game is where I have students get into 2 circles (an inner and outer circle). When they get into their circle they make sure that they have a partner that faces them. Students read their card to their partner and switch cards. Then I have the inner circle move to the right one time. Continue to do this until students have made a complete circle.
