Are you stuck at how to make you kid practice CVC / 3 letter words at home?  Than  you are in the right place.

Kids who are learning to blend through CVC words/ 3 Letter words always need a lot of practice.  And as we all know they cannot read  so there are always pictures accompanying the words in their books as well as worksheets. For that matter I always get stuck while making my daughter practice CVC words like cat mat or tap as I could not draw the pictures neatly. And these DIY worksheets takes so much time to prepare due to drawing. So here are the 3 letter words pictures that I am sharing to lesson your burden. I use them to create flashcards, or to create any worksheet related to blending and segmentation of CVC words. 

I also play games where I just ask my little one to pick any 5-8 pictures and write the names of each one of them. This way it is very easy to do daily revision of segmentation where kids try to segment(divide) the individual sound in each word and write the spelling of that purticular picture. So when she picks a picture of tub she is supposed to segment(divide) the sounds in the word tub – /t/ /u/ /b/ and then write the sounds. 

So isn’t it easy now to revise or practice the 3 letter words with these free images. So what are you waiting for download these for free and save your time.

So, how about some more printables? The title of the cards still makes me snicker every time I read it – makes me think of four letter words…and well, then I laugh. Somehow it just makes the printables seem like something they are NOT. They are educational ~ and all words are safe for your children to use. {grins}

I got the idea for these cards last week when visiting Clemencia’s site. She posted about a literacy game she had picked up at a thrift store and since I don’t have the game, but loved the idea, I put one together last night. The pictures aren’t puzzles in mine, but you could easily make them simple four piece puzzles.

Click on the graphic to download and print the document.

The printable has twenty pictures of words that are spelled with three letters. I made letter tiles with both lower and uppercase letters {’cause each child is different}. You can use the picture as a prompt for your child to sound out and spell the word pictured.

I haven’t uploaded the pictures of Zachary playing yet, but he is having too much fun trying to spell and read right now, so this is a perfect time for this game for him! Hope you all will enjoy it too!
