CVCC and R-Controlled Sound Identification Cards – Free Phonemic Awareness and Phonics Practice with Recording Sheets
Guided Phonics + Beyond
Download free Sound Identification Cards for phonemic awareness practice. Students identify beginning, middle, or ending sounds with recording sheets included.
These free Sound Identification Cards give students practice hearing and locating sounds within words—an essential step in phonemic awareness and phonics development. Each card features a picture and a target sound. Students say the word aloud and decide if the sound occurs at the beginning (green), middle (yellow), or end (red) of the word.
The set also includes three versions of recording sheets, allowing teachers to choose the level of accountability that fits their classroom needs. This flexible resource can be used in small-group lessons, independent centers, or intervention practice.
