"Color the Sound" worksheet helps children identify and match the correct bossy R vowel sound for each picture.

Final Answer:
dirty → ir
morning → or
tart → ar
baker → er
birthday → ur
arm → ar
purse → ur
torn → orn (but only options given are ir/ur/ar for left column and er/or/ar for right — so *torn* matches or since “torn” is pronounced /tɔːrn/, the “or” sound)

Wait — rechecking the worksheet layout:

Each word has three vowel sound choices in a column:
- Left column words (dirty, tart, birthday, purse) choose among: ir, ur, ar
- Right column words (morning, baker, arm, torn) choose among: er, or, ar

Now match each word’s *bossy R* vowel sound:

1. dirty → /ˈdɜːrti/ → “ir” sound → ir
2. morning → /ˈmɔːrnɪŋ/ → “or” sound → or
3. tart → /tɑːrt/ → “ar” sound → ar
4. baker → /ˈbeɪkər/ → “er” sound (the final “er” is schwa + r, but in bossy R terms, “er” = /ɚ/) → er
5. birthday → /ˈbɜːrθdeɪ/ → “ur” sound (the “ur” in *birth* is /ɜːr/) → ur
6. arm → /ɑːrm/ → “ar” sound → ar
7. purse → /pɜːrs/ → “ur” sound (like *bird*, *hurt*) → ur
8. torn → /tɔːrn/ → “or” sound (like *horn*, *born*) → or

So the correct selections are:
- dirty → ir
- morning → or
- tart → ar
- baker → er
- birthday → ur
- arm → ar
- purse → ur
- torn → or
