A Wordle-style phonics game

Vowel Wordle

Guess the word. Every answer is a real phonics word from this site.

Choose a word length, then guess a word in six tries. After each guess, the letters turn green for the right spot, yellow for the right letter in the wrong spot, and gray for a letter that is not in the word. Every answer links to its own phonics lesson, so a solved puzzle is also a new word to learn.

Why every word is useful

Built from real phonics word lists, not a random dictionary

Every answer in Vowel Wordle comes directly from this site's own word-family lessons — short vowels, silent e, r-controlled vowels, vowel teams, and spelling patterns. That means every puzzle is a genuine, teachable word, and every reveal links straight to a lesson with audio, example sentences, and more practice.
