About this resource
Description
The short o sound is the vowel sound children hear in words like box, pot and top. Learning to hear that sound in the middle of a word, and to spell it with the letter o, is a big step toward reading simple words. This short o matching game worksheet gives kindergarten students friendly practice connecting short o pictures to the words that name them.
The short o matching game worksheet starts with a word box of six short o words. Below it are six picture cards: a pot, a box, a mop, a fox, a top and a log. Students say each picture name, find the matching word in the box, and write it on the line under the picture. Every word is a three-letter CVC word, so children can sound it out as they write.
What’s Included
- A word box with six short o words: box, fox, log, mop, pot and top
- Six colorful picture cards with a writing line under each picture
- A complete answer key with every word written in
Why This Kindergarten Short Vowels Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it builds phonemic awareness, because students listen for the middle vowel sound in each picture name. Second, it links sounds to print, since children match what they hear to a written word. Third, copying each word onto its line gives extra handwriting and spelling practice with real CVC words.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting, say the six words together and stretch out the middle sound: b-o-x. Use the page in a phonics center, as morning work, or as a quick check after a short vowel lesson. For a game, cut the cards apart and let children match pictures to word cards, then sort them into words that begin with the same letter.
