CVC Segmenting Cards Free Phonics Activity with Green, Yellow, Red Sound Dots

Guided Phonics + Beyond

Unit 2 - CVC

Download these free CVC segmenting cards with picture prompts. Students tap the green, yellow, and red dots to segment sounds and build decoding skills.

These CVC segmenting cards are a hands-on way to help students build strong phonemic awareness skills. Each card includes a picture clue and three dots for segmenting:

  • Green dot = beginning sound

  • Yellow dot = medial vowel

  • Red dot = final sound

Students look at the picture, say the word, and tap each dot as they segment the sounds. This color-coded approach gives a clear visual for breaking apart words and supports orthographic mapping and blending.

These cards can be used in small-group phonics, literacy centers, or one-on-one interventions to reinforce early reading skills.
