Elevate your phonics sessions with our engaging Write the Room activity designed specifically for practicing CVC words! This dynamic resource offers versatile gameplay that solidifies understanding while keeping learners thoroughly engaged.
Directions for Use:
Get started by printing and cutting apart the cards. For added durability, we recommend laminating them for repeated use. Print out the recording pages and consider providing clipboards for ease of use.
If using in a center, place the cards in a designated tub or area. Children select a card, read the word, then locate the corresponding picture on their recording page, writing the word next to it.
For a Write the Room activity, scatter the cards around the room. Equip each child with a recording page and clipboard. As they spot pictures matching those on their response sheet, they jot down the corresponding word. This adaptable activity works wonders both indoors and outdoors.
The recording pages double as standalone assessment worksheets for CVC words or can be utilized as homework assignments or for early finishers.
Included in this Pack:
5 sets of CVC Write the Room game cards, each focusing on a different middle vowel sound. Every set comprises 10 CVC pictures paired with a corresponding recording sheet.
3 game versions: a straightforward rendition where students copy words they find, one with missing initial sounds, and a version presenting only pictures, allowing pupils to sound out and write the complete word.

Here are over 60 clip cards for initial sounds. This is a great phonics activity for early years or for some key stage 1 pupils. It encourages children to hear the initial sound in a CVC word. Once the initial sound is established children can then blend and read the word. This is great in a tough spot for continuous provision or as a table top activity. I like to laminate these as they can be used with clips or with dry erase felt tips.

These clip cards are a great way for students to practice reading CVC words. Over 70 cards are included; each card has three possible answers. Students select the correct answer by clipping a clothespin, peg or paper clip to it.
I like to laminate these cards so students can simply circle the correct answer using a dry erase marker. These cards are great for talk partner work, think-pair-share or in a tough spot. Alternatively, you can print these on paper to hand out to your class at the end of the lesson; pupils circle the correct answer and hand in as a great exit ticket or plenary to the lesson.
These are perfect for EYFS pupils but may be helpful for your lower KS1 pupils too.
