There are 58 CVC cards and they have a double use.
How to use:-
The student looks at the picture and say what it is.
When s/he knows what the picture is they attempt to sort out the jumbled word by sounding out initial medial and final letters.
S/he then writes the word correctly on the line.
Other use:-
There are 58 cvc cards which are made up of 29 pairs of onset and rime words and pictures.
Lay out pairs of cards for the student to match the rhyming pictures and then unscramble the words and write on the lines.
As an extension they could write funny rhyming lines into their literacy books.
E.g. The pin is in the bin. The fan is in the pan.
