The kids are going to have a blast reading and writing CVC words when they use these search, find and trace CVC worksheets! They are perfect for emergent readers who are learning to decode CVC words. This free printable pack comes with 10 worksheets (5 in color and 5 in black and white). I like to provide both versions to give everyone the best option for their classroom. Each worksheet has 6 CVC words printed in a tracing font. Students will read the words and circle the corresponding picture. Once they find the picture in the search, they will trace the CVC word. Add the worksheets to your literacy centers or use as an independent activity or early finisher task in kindergarten or first grade.
These printable CVC word search worksheets are so easy to prep! You will simply print them and use them! Can it get any easier?
Directions:
If you would like to use the same worksheets again and again, you can print the color version and slip into write and wipe pockets.
Then students can use dry-erase markers to circle the pictures and trace the words. They can also use counting cubes or mini erasers to mark the pictures, if you want to change it up.
The black and white version, can be used just like a regular worksheet and students can use crayons to color on it and pencils to trace the words. Or you can slip it into write and wipe pockets and students can color with dry-erase markers and trace with them too.
These free printable CVC word picture searches are so fun, and I think your students will love them!
Students will start by sounding out and reading the 6 CVC words at the bottom. Then students will look for pictures of those words.
If they are using the color version, they can circle the picture and then trace the CVC word. If they are using the black and white version, they will color the picture once they find it and then trace the CVC word.
These picture word searches would be so beneficial for multiple levels of readers. Your beginning readers can practice putting sounds together and reading simple CVC words.
While more advanced readers can write their word choices on a recording sheet or with a dry-erase marker on a whiteboard. By writing their answers, they would be practicing sounding out the word and writing the correct matching letter and letter formations.
Even higher students could be asked to use their words in a sentence or think of rhyming words to match the words on their word searches.
These picture searches are super versatile and can be used to meet your instructional needs and the needs of your students developmentally. You can incorporate these into whole group lessons, small group lessons, literacy centers, and word work, or use them for independent practice, morning work, or reading warm-ups.
