CVC Words — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each CVC word by following the dotted lines.
1. fan
2. wig
3. cup
4. log
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing vowel on the line to complete the CVC word.
1. fa n (a word for something that blows air)
The missing vowel is a because fan has a short a sound in the middle.
2. wi g (a word for fake hair)
The missing vowel is i because wig has a short i sound in the middle.
3. cu p (a word for something you drink from)
The missing vowel is u because cup has a short u sound in the middle.
4. lo g (a word for a piece of wood)
The missing vowel is o because log has a short o sound in the middle.
5. pe t (a word for an animal you love)
The missing vowel is e because pet has a short e sound in the middle.
Part C: True or False
Read each sentence. Circle True or False.
1. The word 'cup' has a short u sound in the middle.
True False
This is true because cup has the short u vowel sound between c and p.
2. The word 'fan' rhymes with 'fin'.
True False
This is false because fan ends with -an and fin ends with -in, so they do not rhyme.
3. Every CVC word has exactly three letters.
True False
This is true because CVC stands for consonant-vowel-consonant, which is three letters.
