CVC Toolbox

The CVC Toolbox is an engaging and versatile educational resource specifically designed to support early learners in building, reading, and spelling consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words. This hands-on kit includes 70 tri-blocks that highlight the beginning, middle, and final sounds of words, enabling children to manipulate letters physically and understand phoneme placement. Accompanied by 30 double-sided word-building cards featuring real-life photography, the toolbox helps make abstract concepts more concrete and relatable. Ideal for classroom literacy rotations, intervention sessions, or home learning, this toolbox is a fun and tactile way for children to develop phonemic awareness, segmenting and blending skills, and basic spelling competence. Suitable for students in Pre-Primary to Year 2, it promotes early word recognition and builds confidence in decoding strategies through play. The colour-coded tri-blocks support self-correction and guided instruction, making the learning process accessible for a range of literacy levels. This compact, easy-to-use resource makes it simple to support foundational reading skills in a highly interactive and visual way.
