Hi everyone! I’m excited to share my new CVC Funny Words maker with everyone. As part of my K4 Expansion, we’re working more on beginning reading skills. These flip cards are great for getting new readers used to putting letter sounds together.
–> Click here to download CVC Funny Words <–
To play:
-
Cut out the letter tiles and hole punch where indicated.
-
Using 3 key rings, bind the letters together to make a flip chart.
-
Have your student flip the letters to make funny words.
There are actual word ideas on the back cover of the booklet, but I also encourage you to let them try to blend together whatever letters they flip to. It’s more fun, and gives students great practice blending letter sounds together.
These activities are part of my K4 level expansion to my Letter of the Week Curriculum, click on the images below to see more activities!

Hope you enjoy!
My son loves this activity! See a pic of him enjoying the cards here: http://growingngrace.wordpress.com/2011/05/26/funny-words/Thanks, Erica, for all of your hard work.
This is a great idea. I am a Reading Specialist and will recommend this activity for teachers to do in their reading centers at the appropriate time. Thanks so much!
So, I’m right in that it’s consonant, vowel, consonant, so all the vowels in the middle and one of each consonant on the beginning and end?
That is correct, CVC word = consonant-vowel-consonant…easy to ready first words practice ;o)
Very, very cute. Good idea for blending words.
Thank you so much for this printable. My daughter has been struggling with beginning to read and this wonderful hands on tool has helped her so much!!
I know this is an old post…but I am just downloading. The letter “B” is still not there. Also what do we do with the letter “Q”? Is that just for sounding out? Thanks so much for offering so many great downloads….
Same here. I am knew to this and I just tried to download it and the B was missing. Could someone please re-post for us? thanks!
For the letter q, yes, the point isn’t to make real words, though you certainly can. It’s more to get used to blending the letters together. But if it’s confusing them then it might be a good idea to just put the “u” next to the “q” and then go through with the ending consonants flipping around.
For the letter B, i can’t figure it out! It’s there on the printable, i don’t know why it’s not printing. Some weird fluke, so sorry!
thanks for sharing..good job
Thank you sooooo much for making all your cute stuff and giving it for FREE!!!!! It\’s rough being a poor one income teacher who has to do most of her funding. 🙂
thank you
Very cute and useful, but there is no “b”!
