Make phonics fun, hands-on, and engaging with this CVC Beginning Sounds Clip Card Bundle! This collection includes five individual sets, each focusing on a different short vowel sound—short a, e, i, o, and u—designed to support early readers in developing phonemic awareness, decoding skills, and fine motor strength.

How It Works:

  • Each clip card displays:
    -An image representing a CVC word
    • The ending letters of the word (e.g. _at, _et, _ig)
    • A missing initial sound, which children select from the included button-style beginning sound cards

Using clothes pegs, learners clip the correct beginning sound to complete the word—developing phonics skills while strengthening pre-writing muscles.

Colour-Coded for Easy Differentiation:

  • Each word family (e.g. –at, –an, –op) is colour-coded to support rhyme recognition and pattern matching

This visual scaffold helps children identify similar endings and sort sounds with greater independence

What’s Included in the Bundle:

  • 5 complete sets of clip cards with vivid illustrations and CVC word endings
  • Printable initial sound buttons, colour-coded by word family

All files are ready to print, cut, laminate, and use—perfect for repeated practice.

Ideal For:

  • Phonics practice (beginning sounds and blending)
  • Literacy centres and small group instruction
  • EYFS, Reception, and KS1 classrooms
  • Home learning and targeted intervention
  • Fine motor development through peg-based activity

Differentiation Tips:

  • For lower ability learners: Use a smaller set of cards and only the necessary buttons to limit overwhelm
  • For higher ability learners: Add more cards and include extra/distractor sounds to increase challenge

Why This Bundle Works:

  • Builds confidence in identifying and blending beginning sounds
  • Engages learners through tactile and visual learning
  • Encourages independence with colour-coded visual support
  • Strengthens grip and hand coordination to support early writing

A simple, effective, and reusable resource that combines phonics and motor skills—all in one engaging activity!

Print, peg, and play your way to confident early readers.
