An additional benefit:
The cards in this download package are in two sizes.  One is the same half-page size as the print set.  The other is full-page size, in landscape format with larger print – useful with larger groups, especially of kindergarten and first grade children.

Contrast Cards, revised & expanded

The 43 cards in this expanded set train the brain’s speech processor to say the sounds for the letter units, either in isolation or in words.  The cards for each group of contrasts are in different colors so that you can quickly find the ones you need for a lesson.

Each card is 8½” by 5½”.  Here are two samples:

What’s New:

>> 14 new cards for developing response automaticity of symbol–sound correspondence, added in response to teacher requests and clinic observations.

>> Four more pages of instructions and teaching tips, incorporating suggestions from many users and observations from research in decoding.
