Here’s another phonics printable – 60 CVC word flashcards for the ‘a’ words. These have sound buttons.

CVC stands for consonant – vowel – consonant, and CVC words are easy words that your children will be able to sound out and blend as they begin to learn to read.
This pack contains 60 different a word CVC cards with sound buttons.
Sound buttons are the little dots, circles or lines underneath the individual graphemes to help the children see how the words are segmented.
You can them help them but touching each sound button and saying the sound before blending them all together to read the word.
And if you haven’t checked it out yet, you might also like our awesome phonics word card maker. It’s a tool I’m very proud of that can automatically add sound buttons to words. These can then be printed as nice flash cards to make a great resource when helping teach your little ones to read!
What Skills Can Your Little Ones Learn And Develop?



These short a flashcards are designed to help your children practice and develop their early reading skills, such as:
- Segmenting – this is the ability to breakdown and hear each sound in a word.
- Sounding out – this is saying the different sounds that the written letters make, one sound at a time.
- Blending – the ability to put the different sounds of a word together to be able to correctly say the word.
- Letter recognition – recognizing the written form of the letters
These are important skills taught during phonics lessons and help your children take some of their first steps on the path to becoming fluent readers.
