I will solve this CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) worksheet by identifying each picture and filling in the missing middle letter, which is the short 'A' sound as indicated by the title "Short A Words".
Let's go through each row one by one.
First Row:
-
Picture 1: A red backpack. The word is "bag". The missing letter is 'a'.
-
Picture 2: A hand on a rug. The word is "rug". The missing letter is 'u'. Wait, that's not a short 'A' word. Let me re-examine. The image shows a hand on a piece of fabric, which is likely meant to be a "rag". The missing letter would be 'a'.
-
Picture 3: A tag. The word is "tag". The missing letter is 'a'.
Second Row:
-
Picture 1: A ham. The word is "ham". The missing letter is 'a'.
-
Picture 2: A jar of jam. The word is "jam". The missing letter is 'a'.
-
Picture 3: A yam. The word is "yam". The missing letter is 'a'.
Third Row:
-
Picture 1: A bat. The word is "bat". The missing letter is 'a'.
-
Picture 2: A fat cat. The word is "fat". The missing letter is 'a'.
-
Picture 3: A mat. The word is "mat". The missing letter is 'a'.
All the words fit the CVC pattern with a short 'A' sound in the middle.
Here are the completed words:
- bag
- rag
- tag
- ham
- jam
- yam
- bat
- fat
- mat
The solution is to fill in the blank in each word with the letter 'a'.
