Phonics Wheel CVC Word Writing Activity (Set of x5)

What’s included?

This download includes x15 A4, portrait pdf sheets to practise reading and writing CVC words mostly within Phase 2. Sounds from Phase 3 include j, v, w, z and sh.

What’s it for?

This activity is interactive and encourages learners to sound out and read simple CVC words and think about what these words mean. Some words of course may have more than one meaning, however for the purpose of this activity there is one illustration for every word. For words which are ‘new’ learners may need to work by process of elimination to identify the correct word/picture combination to record this (in writing) on the sheet provided.

Who’s it for?

This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support.

Resource Details

• x5 (colour coded) sets are included.

• Each set includes one ‘CVC wheel’ to make with easy to follow instructions. Once the wheel is assembled when turned different initial letters are revealed to make x9 CVC words per wheel.

• CVC words include the sounds ‘an’, ‘et’, ‘ip’, ‘og’ and ‘ug’

• ALL words are ‘real’ (not ‘nonsense’) words.

• The CVC phonics wheel can be reused time and again.

• There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of each sheet (left side).

Differentiation

Also included is one sheet in two levels of difficulty. The first sheet only has the initial sound missing (easier), the second sheet has ALL letters missing - for learners to write on the lines provided (more challenging). The level of difficulty is indicated by an icon at the base of each sheet (right side) - green for easier, red for more challenging.

Suggestion

Card is best to use for making this resource as it is stronger and much more robust than paper, making the phonics wheel easier to turn (for learners) and will last longer. Laminating this resource would be ideal if you have the time.
