Phonics Phonics Grade 3 — Set 2

Systematic Phonics Practice for Every Reader

Phonics is the code that unlocks reading. When students understand the relationship between letters and sounds, they can decode any new word they encounter. Our Phonics worksheets cover every major phonics concept from the simplest beginning sounds to complex vowel patterns and silent letters.

8 Phonics Exercise Types

• Rhyming Match — pair words that share the same rime (-at, -ight, -oon)
• Beginning and Ending Sounds — isolate initial and final phonemes
• Ending Sound Sort — group words by their final phoneme
• Blend Reading — practice two- and three-consonant initial and final blends
• Digraph Worksheets — master sh, ch, th, wh, ph, ng, and gh patterns
• Silent Letter Practice — learn knight, knife, gnome, lamb and other silent-letter patterns
• Vowel Pattern Sort — sort words by vowel spelling and sound pattern
• Phonetic Transcription — introduction to IPA symbols for dictionary use
