What is the VC/CV Pattern?
The VC/CV pattern is when a word has a vowel, then two consonants, then another vowel. We usually split the word between the two consonants. For example, 'rab/bit' or 'den/tist'.
Draw a line to divide each word into two syllables. The first one is done for you.
1. rab/bit
2. den tist
3. sis ter
4. bas ket
5. pup py
