Phase 3 Double Letter Decodable Word Cards
Reinforce early reading with these Phase 3 double letter decodable word cards, ideal for Reception and Year 1 pupils following a systematic synthetic phonics programme. Aligned with the updated 2021 Letters and Sounds progression, these word cards focus on words containing double consonants and are fully decodable.
Each card includes a word featuring double letters, such as rabbit, kitten, muffin, and hammer, supporting pupils as they decode and blend more complex CVC and CVCC word structures. These phonics cards are perfect for classroom displays, small group reading practice, phonics interventions and continuous provision.
Use the cards for sorting activities, word hunts, or sound-based games to embed key spelling patterns and strengthen word recognition. A valuable tool for any phonics-rich environment.
Teaching Tip
Group the cards by final double consonant sounds (e.g. bb, tt, nn) and ask children to blend and read the words aloud. This builds fluency and phoneme awareness.Use alongside our phase 3 phonics resources.
