Why this collection works

Small practice with a clear purpose.

Short U CVC words such as sun, bus, cup, rug, bug, and nut help children practice a consistent three-sound routine. These worksheets keep the word length short while varying the response: blend, fill, choose, sort, build, or hunt. Model one example, then let the learner use the same routine across the page.

Skills practiced
