Wednesday: Ore and oar

A small boat waits on the shore of a pond.

Hazel hands Ferris an oar. Bennie the Bear snores on the sand.

"Row to the far shore," says Hazel.

"More, shore, oar and roar share a sound."

"It is the same sound as or in corn."

See it: ore and oar

The letters o, r, e say the sound in corn.

The letters o, a, r make that sound too.

More, store, shore. Oar, roar, board.

Or, ore and oar: three spellings, one sound.
