Description
Need CVC games students can play independently while you work with small groups?
The CVC Words Roll, Read and Cover Games are individual dice games targeting all CVC short vowel patterns. These games use a simple roll read and cover routine that students can manage independently. Students roll a picture, read the matching CVC word on their board, and cover it. They continue until all words are covered. Perfect for independent literacy centers, morning bins, and take-home practice.
What’s Included
This resource gives you 57 ready-to-use CVC Words Roll Read and Cover games organized by skill focus:
