Description: Using words that look alike forces students to carefully attend to each sound in a word when decoding rather than guessing or rushing through. Building these strong phonemic awareness skills at the word level sets the foundation for fluent reading within text. This deck contains 48 cards depicting CVC short vowel words. Each picture has 6 words around it. Words differ by the initial, final, or medial short vowel sounds. Students must carefully read each word and decide which matches the picture. Because the words look alike, students must focus on each sound in each word to ensure accurate reading. This activity aligns to the Science of Reading research and is a perfect complement to any Orton-Gillingham lesson. The words in this deck are balanced for short vowels and consonants. This CVC short vowel phonemic awareness practice is great for homework or extra practice for your kindergarten and first grade students, especially those struggling readers who have trouble hearing the differences in the short vowels.
