How to Teach Short Vowel CVC

Today's Video is all about how to effectively teach short vowels CVC!

If you missed our video about WHAT are the Sound-Spelling patterns and WHY we teach them, check out the video.

Breaking the English language into the most common spelling patterns is an effective way to teach the connection of the sounds and the spellings to children while learning to read.  This relationship between the sounds and the spellings of language is also called decoding.  Decoding our language is critical to being an adept reader.  Breaking the English language into the most common spelling patterns and teaching them explicitly in a clear scope and sequence is recommended.  You can follow our pattern or break this up to follow your Core Reading Program's scope and sequence.

In our Sound-Spelling Posters and Reference Sheets, we include the spelling patterns:

short vowels in cvc  consonants and blends  soft c and g  silent and double consonants  schwa  digraphs and trigraph  r-controlled vowels  long vowels: final silent e (vce)  long vowels: vowel teams  other long vowels  closed syllables  open syllables  variant vowels consonant-le
