/R/ Tongue Twisters

I have some /r/ students who are getting close to dismissal from speech therapy. As a challenge we do tongue twisters!

Initial R:

Reba really wants Rex to run races rather relaxingly

Rain rains really regretfully on my red roses.

Rod was riled ripping rigid rafts and raw rusty radishes yesterday.

Roy roamed the red reef after it really rained.

The round road roams regretfully right rather than left.

Ring around a rosy, ring around a rosy, roses, roses really fall down.

Rest really rocks more than running or riding runaway recycling trucks.

Royal raccoons rescue ridiculous rabbits from reputable rattlesnakes.

Reading rainbow wrinkles like raisins recognized in Rocky Mountains.

The rath of regular racing reptiles is really rather scary.


Medial R:

The squirrel and parrot ate carrots, corn, berries, and cereal in a barrel during a hurricane.

The fairy cut the horse’s hairy mane with a sharp scissors.

The fireman nursed the burning garbage with a small watering syrup can.

The horse hurt the cart by squirting dirt on the wire tires.

The lord and lady had smart, large swords that were part of the empire.

Birds learn to turn nearby the fern and chirp after eating a worm.

The nurse has curls the nerd heard were cursed.

Burt the nerd heard a bird chirp and saw the worm squirm.

The barnyard on the farm is very carefully arranged.

Our children are smarter than an armadillo arching an army of aardvarks.


Final R:

Four doctors tore tires off cars for more dollars.

Mr. Monster is the author of Nightmare in November After October.

Heather can hear hamster singers an hour before shore.

Peter Pear was rather poor, however; his summer supper was lobster.

The corner store will offer a pepper picture for either under or over a dollar.

The fire in the tower will require far more water than before.

There are more poor people in the world than rich.

The tiger will purr if the car hits the deer in fair weather.

Cover your door with flower wallpaper and Delaware sycamore trees.

Is the conquistador from El Salvador, the U.S.S.R, New Hampshire,  or the North Star?
