The Pirate Sound (ar)

Teaching the "r-controlled" Vowel Sound
Ron Brown


This song is available on Intelli-tunes' "Beginning Reading Skills"



There once was a pirate long ago
Who loved the ar sound you know.
When he saw a word with an a and r
You could hear him calling near and far.

car    jar    ar! ar! ar!
tar    star    ar! ar! ar!
par    bar    ar! ar! ar!
arm    harm    charm

That pirate sailed the ocean blue
In search of gold and silver too.
But, the greatest treasure that there could be
Was an ar word that he could read!

far    scar    ar! ar! ar!
Mars    cars    ar! ar! ar!
start    cart    ar! ar! ar!
hard    card    lard

ar! ar!
ar! ar!
ar! ar!

An ar word says ar!
ar!
