Why custom cards beat a generic printable set

Jolly Phonics teaches 42 letter sounds in a set order, so the most useful Jolly Phonics flashcards follow the groups your class is working through. A generic printable sheet often covers every sound at once and skips the review your learners need.

Cards follow the sound groups in your own lesson plan
Photos of charts and worksheets are read with text recognition
Spaced repetition brings back the sounds learners find hardest
PDF export for printing is included in the Plus plan

Generate the full set

Built from your files

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, notes or photos of pages, and DeckOwl reads the text and turns it into cards.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at the intervals that help letter sounds stick, so children and tutors review what is due.

Study anywhere

The free plan lets you study in the browser. Plus adds PDF export so you can print a set for the classroom.

How it works

Add your material

Upload the phonics sheet, slide deck or photo of the chart you already use.

Generate flashcards

Review the cards it creates and remove any that do not fit your sound order.

Study in short sessions

Work through the cards that are due each day, and export to PDF on Plus when you want paper copies.

Making your own cards from the material you already teach keeps the wording, pictures and sound order consistent. You can add a new group as your class reaches it, rather than printing a full set in advance.

Start with the sounds from this week's lesson, then add the next group when your learners are ready. Short daily reviews of the cards that are due work better than one long session.

Frequently asked questions

How many Jolly Phonics sounds should flashcards cover?

What should be on the front and back of a phonics flashcard?

Put the letter or letter group on the front and the sound on the back, with a short example word such as sun for s. Keep one sound per card so the review stays focused.
