Digital Phonogram Cards Visual Drill

By Tech for Teaching

Students need to be proficient at connecting the sounds in language to the visual grapheme or phonogram within text. Available as both a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation (download) and a Google Slides presentation (link in PDF), this resource can be quickly and easily navigated to provide your students with the skills to become fluent with phonics!

The presentation includes 338 slides. The slides are fully editable if you would like to delete or add to them. The navigation buttons will take you to the phonogram drills below.

SINGLE LETTER PHONOGRAMS

ALL SINGLE LETTER PHONOGRAMS:

  • Each consonant sound is shown once with the exception of the frequently confused letters b, d, p, and q, which are shown twice.
  • Each vowel is shown twice for extra practice.

CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • All single letter consonant phonograms shown once with the exception of b, d, p, and q (frequently confused).

VOWEL PHONOGRAMS:

  • Each vowel (a, e, i, o, u) is shown three times.

VOICED CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • Ask students to gently place their hands on their throats and feel the vibration when saying these phonograms. 

Phonograms included: b, d, g, j, l, m, n, r, v, y, w, and z.

UNVOICED CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • Contrast the vibration felt with the voiced when you practice saying these unvoiced phonograms. 

Phonograms included: c, f, h, k, p, s

STOP CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • Some sounds cannot be stretched. Practice saying these phonograms without adding a vowel sound. 

Phonograms included: b, c, d, g, j, k, p, t.

CONTINUOUS CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • These phonograms can be stretched or sung for as long as your longs will hold out!

Phonograms included: f, l, m, n, r, s, v, z

TRICKY CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • These tricky sounds don’t fit neatly into a category but should still be practiced!

Phonograms included: h, q, w, x, y

SINGLE SOUND CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • Once you learn these letter phonograms there will be no surprises! They only make one sound! 

Letters included: b, d, f, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, r, t, v, w, z

MULTI SOUND CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • These six letters make more than one sound. Learn them all!

MULTI LETTER PHONOGRAMS

CONSONANT DIGRAPHS:

  • The most common consonant digraphs. 

Included phonograms: sh, ch, th, tch, wh, ph

VOWEL DIGRAPHS:

  • Vowel digraphs are divided into two sets. Set one includes the more common digraphs and set two includes less common and more difficult digraphs and diphthongs.

Phonograms included: Set 1: ai, ay, ee, ea, ow, oa, ou, / Set 2: au, aw, oo, ew, oi, oy, igh

r-CONTROLLED VOWEL PHONOGRAMS:

  • Common and not so common combinations including r.

Phonograms included: ar, er, ur, ir, or, wor, ear

Phonograms included: a_e, e_e, i_e, o_e, u_e

SILENT LETTER CONSONANT PHONOGRAMS:

  • Practice in isolation will make these phonograms not so GHOSTLY when they appear in text!

Phonograms included: wr, gn, mb, mn, kn, gh

VOWEL + NK/NG PHONOGRAMS:

  • These commonly encountered phonograms can be practiced to make them more recognizable within text.
