What are CVC words & Why are they Important?

CVC words are words that have a consonant vowel consonant pattern. They have easy to sound out consonants with a short vowel sound in the middle. They don’t have any tricky blends or digraphs for kids to work around.

They are considered simple words that can be used with early readers to help sound out and decode words.

They have short vowel sounds that make sounding out words easy.

You are going to find words like cat. Kids can sound out the letters C A & T. And then blend the sounds together to make the word.

Some CVC words that kids learn are bug, map, sat, dog, pot, pan, etc.
