Science of Reading Sound Wall and Vowel Valley. Real Mouth Photos are included with photos of diverse kindergarten students. Includes: Set of alphabet wall cards (consonants and vowels). Each card is 4.7 x 8.3 in size and includes an engaging initial sound picture, the letter in a traditional font, and an image(s) of a child's mouth making the sound. Vowel Valley and Sound Wall decorative titles Headers for each section of the sound wall to organize the sounds Locks to use before a sound is introduced Examples of how the Vowel Valley and Sound Wall can be displayed **We have also created this packet in a color-coded version. If you are interested, click here. WHY ISN’T EVERY LETTER REPRESENTED ON THE SOUND WALL? Phonemes are sounds. Graphemes are how we spell those sounds. A phoneme could have several graphemes, but phoneme cards are what we’re using. The sound wall is a display of sounds, and some letters make the same sound. For example, both c and k make the /k/ sound.
These alphabet cards include real mouth pictures that support young students in becoming aware of articulation (how the sound is formed with the mouth). This awareness helps anchor each phoneme (sound) into memory and also helps students distinguish between letters that look alike or sound similar. Students can better relate their mouths with the real photos when learning to produce the speech sounds. The cards also use real photographs for the keyword pictures which make them more meaningful and able to be connected to the real world. The alphabet cards move from speech to print by first showing the mouth picture to help with articulation and how to say the sound. The keyword picture is next which helps remind students of the sound. Lastly, the print (the uppercase and lowercase letters) is shown which helps students connect the speech sound to how it is represented in print. There are 2 cards for each vowel (long vowel card and short vowel card). I also included 2 options for the letters a regular print and a letter formation print. The letter formation option shows students how to correctly form the letter which can be helpful to young students. They are perfect supplemental materials for your sound wall, especially when teaching young students both the uppercase and lowercase forms of the letters. The cards can also be used in centers or during small groups. Students can rainbow trace the letters, form the letters with play dough, use small cars to follow the letter formation arrows, sort the cards, find the correct cards after hearing a sound, etc. Please note: The letters 'a and 'g have 2 options from which to choose, one with a 'printed form of the letter and one without. Since these letters can look quite different in printed materials (books), I included the 'printed form of each letter on one version of the card so students can be introduced to them. This was something I learned during a training and thought it was a wonderful idea! Choose which option works best for your students.

Have a meaningful sound wall with real mouth photos, photo cards, and alphabet cards based on the science of reading that your students can easily use and relate to their environment! Students can better match their mouths with the student mouth photos on the sound wall when saying/learning the sounds and searching for sounds on the sound wall. In addition, the real keyword photos are similar to objects they see in their environment thus helping make connections to the real world. The goal of a sound wall is to help students become proficient readers and spellers by helping them build solid phoneme-grapheme correspondence. This sound wall is set up to go from speech to print so it can help young students connect the speech sounds they already know to how those sounds are represented in print. The real mouth photos are first. They create an awareness of articulation (how the sound is formed with the mouth) which not only helps anchor each phoneme into memory but also helps students distinguish between letters that look alike or sound similar. The mouth cards were photographed by a speech pathologist and show close-ups of diverse students' mouths as they are producing the 44 phonemes. They also include the phoneme (sound) and a voice icon if the sound is voiced. Having these student mouth photographs first on the sound wall not only aids students in seeing how the sound is made but also makes it easier for them to search for a sound on the sound wall. They can easily find it by matching how their mouth looks when making the sound. The keyword photographs are next. They help remind students of the sound and were carefully selected to ensure that they represent the phoneme (sound). The word/spelling cards are last. Each individual card has a real photograph to help young students remember the word and the entire word is shown with the spelling pattern highlighted in a different color (vowels are red, consonants are blue). This helps young students recognize that the individual letters form words and where in the words the spelling patterns occur. Each spelling pattern has its own individual word spelling card so you can put them on your sound wall as they are learned (build it together with your students) and choose which ones to use. This sound wall bundle also has alphabet cards with real mouth pictures and keyword photos to help students learn both the uppercase and lowercase letters. The alphabet cards move from speech to print by first showing the mouth picture to help with articulation and how to say the sound. The keyword picture is next which helps remind students of the sound. Lastly, the print (the uppercase and lowercase letters) is shown which helps students connect the speech sound to how it is represented in print. There are 2 cards for each vowel (long vowel card and short vowel card). I also included 2 options for the letters – a regular print and a letter formation print. The letter formation option shows students how to correctly form the letter which can be helpful to young students. They are perfect supplemental materials for your sound wall, especially when teaching young students both the uppercase and lowercase forms of the letters. The cards can also be used in centers or during small groups. Students can rainbow trace the letters, form the letters with play dough, use small cars to follow the letter formation arrows, sort the cards, find the correct cards after hearing a sound, etc. This sound wall resource includes: real student mouth photo cards for the 44 phonemes - close-up photos of diverse students' mouths with the phoneme (sound) in the corner and a voice icon in the other corner if the sound is voiced real keyword pictures for each of the 44 phonemes - help remind students of the sound and make connections to the real world (their environment) individual word spelling cards for each spelling pattern - each card has a photograph along with the word (spelling patterns are highlighted in a different color). Place them on your sound wall as they are learned, only use the ones you need to teach. sound spelling cards for each of the 44 phonemes - each card contains a keyword photograph, the sound, a voice symbol if the sound is voiced, and all the spellings for the sound.
