Free Printable CVC Short A Puzzles
Playing games or in this case, doing puzzles is one of my favorite ways to reinforce concepts the students have been working on. Today I’m sharing Free Printable CVC Short A Puzzles to help the kiddos review. It’s always a bonus when the kiddos are getting practice but don’t even realize it since they are playing a game.
CVC words are words that are made up of a consonant, short vowel, and consonant sound, such as cat, bed, tip, hot, and rug. The goal is for students to use their knowledge of the individual sounds of each letter and ‘blend’ these letter sounds together, so they are saying the whole word and not three individual sounds.
Today we are starting with Short A words.

To Play
To play, mix up all of the puzzle pieces. Have the student choose a picture.
They will then search through the puzzle pieces to find the matching word to complete the puzzle. Continue this until all of the puzzles have been put together. This can be played individually, or with a friend during centers or even in a small group.
I’ve also included a recording sheet for the students to write the short a words using the puzzles they’ve put together.
To store the puzzles, we use small plastic photo box. It make sit easy for the students to grab the box to play and then they can easily clean them back up.
