In this worksheet, you'll get to practice dividing VC/CV words into their syllables. VC/CV words are formed by vowel-consonant followed by consonant-vowel sounds, like 'kitten,' 'pencil,' and 'number.' Your task is to find the divide, which usually occurs between the consonants.

When you have a word with a VC/CV pattern, it means there's a vowel (V) followed by a consonant (C), then another consonant (C), and another vowel (V). Find the two consonants between the vowels to divide the word into syllables. Draw a line to split right between those consonants. For example, in the word "pumpkin," you find the letters "m" and "p" between the vowels "u" and "i," so you divide it as "pump-kin."
