For Rock ‘N Learn’s complete Bossy R video including AR, ER, IR, OR, UR: https://youtu.be/AqqIbC1deGA
This animated phonics song helps children learn about the r-controlled vowel sound ER in English. Bossy R can make vowels sound different! Fun characters teach kids two words at a time with the ER sound. Kids will love singing along and watching the action after each group of two words. As they do, they’ll practice making the ER sound. Developed with speech therapists to form each letter sound correctly. Extra practice reading words with the letter combination ER follows the song.
