Songs to learn "word families like at.

I use the internet to "spark" my lessons.

I get surprised what I find on every topic.

Teach your child the following song song to the tune of

("Have You Ever Seen a Lassie?")

Did you ever see a cat, a cat, a cat,
Did you ever see a rat, a rat, a rat,
r-at, c-at,
r-at, c-at,
Did you ever see a cat sit on a rat?

_______________________________

("The Wheels on the Bus")


The sounds in the word go /r/ /a/ /t/; /r/ /a/ /t/; /r/ /a/ /t/.
The sounds in the word go /r/ /a/ /t/,
Can you guess the word
_______________________________
(tune: Are You Sleeping?)


I can spell rat,
I can spell rat,
r-A-t!
r-A-t!
I can write the letters, always getting better!
r-A-t!
r-A-t!

_______________________________
(tune of "Are You Sleeping?")


r-a-t, r-a-t
Do you know that word?
Do you know that word?
That spells the word rat.
That spells the word rat.
r-a-t, r-a-t

_______________________________
(tune of Loopy Loo)


r-a-t spells rat!
r-a-t spells rat!
r-a-t spells rat!
and it rhymes with cat!

_______________________________
(tune of Jingle Bells)


r-a-t,r-a-t,r-a-t spells rat!
r-a-t,r-a-t,r-a-t spells rat!

r-a-t,r-a-t,r-a-t spells rat!
r-a-t,r-a-t,
What do you think of that?

_______________________________
Use the short sound of a


There once was a very big c_t
Who never would look where he s_t
He lay down, you know
Without looking below
And that was the end of my h_t.

_______________________________

Tune of Billy Boy

Spelling is a breeze when
c-a-t that spells cat.
r-a-t that spells rat
They go together.
For spelling word familes
Help me spell my words with ease.
Change the first part
But keep the ending letters.
