What is a CVC word ?
A CVC word is nothing but a three lettered word made of a consonant, vowel, and consonant sound. When a vowel is followed by a consonant, it is a closed syllable and makes the vowel say its sound. Let’s take an example Mat is an example of a CVC word. Each letter makes its sound clearly and hence is easily decodable. It is easy for a beginning readers to blend the letter sounds to say the word. Log, pig, pot, run, and tag are also examples of CVC words. Check out a complete guide on how to read through phonics.
WHY BEGIN WITH CVC WORDS?
Since CVC words are easily decodable, they help our beginning readers feel confident when learning how to read. Once your child masters reading CVC words by blending sounds he/she can start learning to read other phonics concepts like magic-e words (long vowel words),vowel teams, and words that contain blends and digraphs. (two consonants next to each other in a word).
The CVCs goes by word families, hence sorting them by vowels makes it more systematic and easier to teach young minds. So, apart from the above “Complete CVC (Three Lettered) Words Chart” Let’s explore more of these word families as per their Vowel sounds:
