This 8-question worksheet practices reading CVC words and blends through three matching items, one missing-letter fill-in-the-blank item, and four multiple-choice questions. Students connect letters and sounds to complete words, recognize words such as run and bed, and select the word that matches a picture, such as nap.
Model how to sound out each word by identifying the beginning, middle, and ending sounds before students attempt the matching items. Then have students explain why a missing letter completes R_N as run and use the multiple-choice items to connect decoded words with their meanings or pictures.
Watch for students choosing a whole-word option instead of supplying the missing vowel in R_N, or confusing lowercase and uppercase options such as run and Run. In the matching and picture-based questions, students may select a visually similar word without sounding it out; ask them to read each option aloud and compare all of its sounds.
Wayground provides this worksheet as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz, and it includes a complete answer key for checking the matching, fill-in-the-blank, and multiple-choice responses. For printable submissions, teachers can scan student work with the Wayground for Teachers app to support grading.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing or font size so the word choices and matching items are easier to track. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when that supports access to the word-reading tasks.
