Phase 3 Longer Words Decodable Word Cards
Develop confident readers with our Phase 3 longer words decodable word cards, carefully designed for pupils learning to decode two-syllable and compound words. These phonics word cards follow the 2021 Letters and Sounds progression and are ideal for use with Reception and Year 1 children.
Each card features a fully decodable longer word using Phase 3 graphemes, including examples like carpet, chicken, rocket, popcorn, and farmyard. The cards are perfect for building decoding skills, supporting children as they begin to blend and read longer and more complex words with confidence.
Use these printable phonics cards for partner reading, phonics interventions, games, and word hunts. A valuable addition to any SSP-aligned classroom working beyond CVC words.
Teaching Tip
Introduce longer words during guided reading, encouraging children to chunk and blend each syllable. Reinforce with sound buttons or syllable clapping. Use alongside our phase 3 phonics resources.
