Help your students master tricky digraphs and diphthongs with this Science of Reading-aligned picture sorting collection — over 150 pages of ready-to-print, no-prep phonics centers! What makes this different? Every sound comes with three mat versions (picture-only, word-only, and blank) plus matching sorting cards, so you can differentiate instantly — same center, different levels, no extra prep. Designed for literacy centers, small groups and targeted phonics practice, this pack makes phonics practice more hands-on. Students sort familiar pictures and words by their spelling patterns while strengthening sound-spelling connections and building vocabulary along the way. What made these sorts so useful in my own classroom was how easily they could be adapted to different learners. Choose from picture-only, word-only or blank sorting mats, then mix and match the cards to introduce a new pattern, compare two or more sounds, provide independent practice or revisit previously taught phonics skills. 30+ sounds included AI as in rain AY as in play AR as in star AW as in claw AU as in autumn EE as in bee EA as in peach EY as in donkey OA as in boat OU as in mouse OW as in cow OW as in crow OO as in book OO as in moon OI as in coin OY as in toy OR as in horse ER as in flower IR as in first UR as in purse CK as in clock NG as in ring CH as in cheese TH as in sloth SH as in shell WH as in white PH as in dolphin A_E as in cake I_E as in bike O_E as in rope U_E as in cube Each sound pack includes: 3 sorting mat versions (blank, picture-only, word-only) — 1 per page Picture + word sorting cards — 14 per page Picture-only and word-only sorting cards — 8 of each per page File type – Ready to print PDF IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU PURCHASE THIS RESOURCE… All of our resources are downloadable digital files that you will be able to access immediately after purchase. ★ Please view the available PREVIEWS to see more of what’s included ★ I also encourage you to ask questions before purchasing if you are uncertain of anything.
