Exciting Start to Our CVC Words Adventure!

📚 Welcome to Reading Time!

Good morning, bright stars! Today, we are going to embark on an exciting adventure into the world of CVC words. What is a CVC word, you ask? Well, don’t worry! We’ll find out together, and I promise it's going to be fun!

🎵 CVC Word Song

To kick things off, let's listen to a short, catchy song about CVC words! [Teacher plays a fun song or sings about CVC words, emphasizing the sounds].

Now, let’s pause for a moment. After the song, can anyone tell me what CVC means? That’s right! It stands for Consonant-Vowel-Consonant!

🕵️‍♂️ Word Detective Challenge!

The Game Begins!

Now that we know a bit about CVC words, let’s put on our Word Detective hats! I’m going to show you some pictures, and I want you to guess what the word is by identifying the sounds.

Here’s how it will work:

1. Look at the Picture: I will show a picture, like a "cat" or "bat."
2. Listen and Identify: I’ll say the beginning sound, and we’ll sound out the rest of the word together!
3. Shout It Out: Once we have sounded it out, let’s all shout the CVC word together!

🖼️ The First Picture

Are you ready? Here it comes! [Show a picture of a "cat"]

• What do you hear at the beginning? /k/
• What’s the vowel sound? /a/
• What's the ending sound? /t/

Let’s put it all together! What’s the word? Yes! It’s CAT!
