Middle Sounds

This set of worksheets is useful for helping children to learn the middle
vowel sounds of simple CVC (consonant vowel consonant) words.

Instructions

Middle Sound Worksheets

• Look at the picture and say what it is out loud e.g. “hen”.
• Say the word slowly “h – e- n” to identify the middle sound.
• Write the middle vowel sound in the circle.

Word Searches
• Read the word in the list and look for it in the word search. If you find it,
highlight the word.
• I usually teach a circling technique - find the first letter and then look
around it for the middle sound and then the last sound.
• The words go up, down, forwards and backwards.
