Sample CVC Word Flashcard

CVC Words Phonics Card Game

The CVC words (words like cat, bed, and dog that are formed using consonant-vowel-consonant) are the most basic words taught in a phonics program. These cards can be used to reinforce decoding skills for CVC words in a fun way by playing Fish or Memory, or even just as flashcards. They come in two forms: words and pictures on the same card and words and pictures on separate cards. The version of this game with words and pictures on separate cards can be found here. Print two copies of the cards and paste on posterboard to make a deck of cards to play Go Fish, review the vocabulary, or play Memory.

Go Fish:
Students each get 2 or 3 cards dealt to them. Going clockwise students try to match up their cards by asking other students if they have a matching card. Interactions are as follows:

Student A: Do you have a hat?
Student B: Yes, I do. (Student B gives card to student A and student A gets a point).



or


Student A: Do you have a cat?
Student B: No, I don't. (Student A takes a card from the deck).
