This Medium Kindergarten worksheet challenges students with nine fill-in-the-blank CVC words covering all five short vowel sounds. Learners listen for the middle vowel in words like map, net, sit, pot, and bus. A matching activity asks Kindergarten students to match four CVC words (bat, ten, fix, log) to their short vowel sounds. This practice deepens phonics skills aligned with CCSS RF.K.3b for early readers.
