CCVC and R-Controlled Words Picture Cards – Free Phonics Flashcards with Sound Icons and Nonfiction Images

These free R-Controlled Words Picture Cards provide a simple yet powerful way to strengthen phonics instruction. Each flashcard highlights an r-controlled word paired with a sound icon, helping students visually connect letters to sounds. Real nonfiction images are included to capture student interest and make learning meaningful.

Teachers can use these cards for small-group lessons, independent practice, or literacy centers. They also work well for review and sound-sorting activities. For example, display the “or” card and have students sort matching words such as corn, fork, cord, and thorn. Words without the target sound are sorted separately, encouraging critical listening and analysis.
