Short Word Identification

In this worksheet, students match simple images-such as a plane, web, cup, and dog-with their corresponding short, rhyming word options. The task builds early phonics awareness by encouraging learners to recognize and distinguish between visually and phonetically similar words. It strengthens decoding skills, early reading fluency, and sound-letter correspondence. The focus on short vowel sounds and simple consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) structures reinforces phonemic understanding.
