SLAR Grades K 2 Handout #5 Erre con erre Activity On this handout you will find a copy of the poem Erre con erre, which can be used for teaching two spelling rules for the letter r as well as spelling-rule words for this lesson. This traditional Spanish poem can be used to help students remember the spelling rules for the vibrating /rr/ sound, as heard in the Spanish word rama, which is spelled with just one letter r and in the Spanish word cerro, which is spelled with the digraph (or double) rr. Rule #1: El sonido vibrante /rr/ se escribe con una letra r al principio de la palabra como en rico, rama, remo y rima. Rule #2: El sonido vibrante /rr/ se escribe con el dígrafo rr en medio de dos vocales como en las palabras perro, corren, cerro y parra. 11

SLAR Grades K 2 Handout #7 The House The two boys ran until they came to the driveway. See, I told you today was good for skipping school, said Mark. Mom is never home on Thursday, he added. Tall hedges hid the house from the road so the pair strolled across the finely landscaped yard. I never knew your place was so big, said Pete. Yeah, but it s nicer now than it used to be since Dad had the new stone siding put on and added the fireplace. There were front and back doors and a side door, which led to the garage, which was empty except for three parked 10-speed bikes. They went in the side door, Mark explaining that it was always open in case his younger sisters got home earlier than their mother. Pete wanted to see the house so Mark started with the living room. It, like the rest of the downstairs, was newly painted. Mark turned on the stereo, the noise of which worried Pete. Don t worry, the nearest house is a quarter mile away, Mark shouted. Pete felt more comfortable observing that no houses could be seen in any direction beyond the huge yard. The dining room, with all the china, silver, and cut glass, was no place to play, so the boys moved into the kitchen where they made sandwiches. Mark said they wouldn t go to the basement because it had been damp and musty ever since the new plumbing had been installed. This is where my Dad keeps his famous paintings and his coin collection, Mark said as they peered into the den. Mark bragged that he could get spending money whenever he needed it since he d discovered that his Dad kept a lot of it in the desk drawer. There were three upstairs bedrooms. Mark showed Pete his mother s closet, which was filled with furs and the locked box, which held her jewels. His sisters room was uninteresting except for the color TV which Mark carried to his room.
