Learning to read is one of the most important milestones in a child’s education. One of the earliest and most effective strategies for teaching reading is through the use of CVC words. CVC stands for Consonant-Vowel-Consonant. These are simple three-letter words that follow a predictable pattern, making them ideal for young learners and beginner readers.
CVC words help children understand how individual sounds (phonemes) come together to form words. They provide a solid foundation for phonics, blending, and decoding skills. For example, in the word “cat,” children can learn to blend the sounds /k/, /a/, and /t/ to read the whole word.
This ebook is designed for early learners, ESL students, and anyone who is beginning their journey into reading and spelling. It includes 50 of the most common CVC words, each with a clear definition and example sentence. Following the word list, you will find a student worksheet with 30 fun and educational exercises that help reinforce the material. Answers are provided at the end for self-assessment or teacher use.
