How to blend - CVC Words

CVC words = Consonant-Vowel-Consonant
Like: `cat, dog, sun, pig, mop`

This is the next big step after CV blending! Here’s the easiest way to teach it to weak students πŸ‘‡

4 Steps to Blend CVC Words

1. Isolate the sounds

Hold up 3 fingers.

`c - a - t` β†’ /k/ /a/ /t/

Don’t say "kuh-aaa-tuh". Say clean sounds: /k/ /a/ /t/

2. Slide them together

Use your finger to slide under the word as you stretch the sounds.

`c-a-t` β†’ /kkkaaatt/ β†’ "cat"

Think of it like pulling elastic - don’t stop between sounds.

3. Use body movements

Tap method:
Tap shoulder = /c/,
elbow = /a/,
wrist = /t/.
Oarm = "cat"

Jump method : Jump for each sound, then jump once and say the whole word

4. Picture + Word matching

Show picture of a `cat` β†’ sound it out β†’ blend β†’ "cat!" Kids love the "aha!" moment

Teaching Order that Works

Start with continuous sounds first, they blend easier:

1. m, s, f, r, l→ `map, sun, fish, rug, lip`
2. Then add stops: `b, c, d, g, p, t` β†’ `bat, dog, pig`

Quick Classroom Activities

- Sound Boxes: 3 boxes. Put a chip for each sound, then push chips together while blending

Blending Ladder: `a β†’ at β†’ cat`

CV to CVC :

From your CV chart: `ba` + `t` = `bat`

The "magic e" (also known as silent e or split digraph) is a phonics rule where adding an "e" to the end of a word changes the preceding vowel from a short sound to a long sound.

The "e" itself remains silent, acting only to alter the vowel sound.

How It WorksVowel Name: The "magic e" skips over a consonant, "telling" the vowel to say its alphabet name rather than its short sound.

Silence: The "e" uses all its energy to perform this magic, leaving it with no sound to make at the end of the word.

Common Examples

A-E: cap β†’ cape, can β†’ cane
I-E: pin β†’ pine, kit β†’ kite
O-E: hop β†’ hope, rod β†’ rode
U-E: cub β†’ cube, cut β†’ cute
