Looking for an fun {and colorful} way to have your child sound out and spell three letter words? The Three Letter Word Cards contain a list of 42 3-letter CVC words for children to sound and spell using fun picture clues and hands-on learning.
The Three Letter Word Cards include:
- 48 full color picture cards with word prompts {lightly shaded in gray}
- 48 full color picture cards with no letter or word prompts
- 2 sheets of color-coded letter tiles {upper and lower case}
Ideas for Using the Word Cards
- For early learners – trace the shaded letters using Vis-à-vis markers or dry erase markers
- Match the correct letter tile to the letter on the puzzle card
- Spell the word with letter tiles using no prompts
- Write the letters in the squares using a vis-à-vis or dry erase marker
How We’re Using the 3 Letter Word Cards
We printed off our set onto cardstock and then laminated them to make them a bit more sturdy. {Note: This is how we laminate more inexpensively}. We’re using a cookie sheet as the base for our word cards and have added magnets to the back of the letters. If you are looking for magnets and an expanded set of GREAT letter tiles, All About Spelling has Letter Tile Magnets and Letter Tiles available that are already perforated ~ a huge help!
The letter tiles include vowels in both blue and pink. If you are teaching your child the difference between consonants and vowels, the pink tiles will come in handy to show that they are vowels in the CVC {consonant-vowel-consonant} words.
