About this resource
Description
The letters w and r team up to make one sound in words like write, wren, and wrist, where the w is silent, and this wr phonics stories worksheet gives beginning readers a fun way to practice that tricky digraph. Children read a short, decodable story that is packed with wr words, then answer questions about what they read. Learning to spot the wr pattern helps young readers decode new words with confidence.
This printable is part of the Phonics Stories series and works like a mini reading lesson. Students read the story about Wren and a friendly wrestler, fill in the bubble to answer four comprehension questions, and finish a wr words worksheet activity by writing the correct wr word in each sentence. It is perfect for guided reading groups, phonics centers, or at-home practice, and the included answer key makes checking simple.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- A short decodable story featuring the wr digraph
- 4 fill-in-the-bubble comprehension questions
- A wr word-bank writing activity
This wr phonics stories worksheet helps children in three ways. First, it builds decoding skills by giving lots of wr words to read in context. Second, it strengthens reading comprehension, because students must understand the story to answer the questions. Third, it reinforces spelling and word recognition through the word-bank activity, so the silent-w pattern really sticks.
Teachers and parents can extend the practice by having children hunt for other wr words like wrap, wreck, and wrench, or by asking students to draw a picture of their favorite part of the story. Reading the story aloud together and clapping for each wr word makes the silent-w pattern playful and easy to remember. You can also write silly wr sentences together and let your child underline every wr word they can find.
