Why build your own set instead of printing one

Printable Jolly Phonics letter flashcards are easy to find, but a generic set does not match the order your child is learning or the example words your teacher uses. Making your own from the pages you already have keeps the cards aligned with what is being taught.

  • Upload a photo of a phonics page and check the generated cards before the first session.
  • Mix in letters from the current week with letters learned earlier so earlier sounds are not forgotten.
  • Say each sound aloud before flipping the card so your child practices the sound, not just the shape.
  • Export to PDF on Plus if you want a printed copy for a classroom station or a car trip.
Example Jolly Phonics letter sound flashcards
Which sound does the letter s make in sun?The /s/ sound, as in sun. It is a hissing sound made with the tongue near the teeth.
Which sound does the letter a make in ant?The short /a/ sound, as in ant, apple and cat.
Which sound does the letter t make in top?The /t/ sound, as in top. It is made with a small puff of air from the tongue tapping behind the teeth.
What sound does c make in cat?The hard /k/ sound, as in cat. Before e, i or y, c often makes the soft /s/ sound, as in city.
What sound do the two letters sh make together?The /sh/ sound, as in ship. Two letters that make one sound together are called a digraph.
Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, slides, a DOCX, plain notes or a photo of a phonics page. Images are read with text recognition, so you can work from pages you already have.

Spaced repetition

Letters your child misses come back sooner, and the ones they know move further apart, so review time goes to the sounds that need it.

Study in the browser

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF export for printing.

How it works

Upload your pages

Add the Jolly Phonics sheet, a photo of the letter chart or your own typed notes.

Generate your cards

DeckOwl turns the letters, sounds and example words into flashcards with the sound on one side and the letter on the other.

Review a little each day

Run short sessions and let spaced repetition bring back the letter sounds that are still shaky.

Start with the sounds, not the letter names. Phonics programs teach children to connect each letter with its sound first, so a useful card shows the letter on the front and the sound, with a short example word, on the back. Review new sounds daily in short sessions and keep older ones in rotation so they stick.

Frequently asked questions

Should children learn letter names or letter sounds first?

Phonics programs such as Jolly Phonics focus on letter sounds first, because sounds are what children blend into words. Letter names can come later, so flashcards should prompt the sound.

How often should a child review letter flashcards?

Short sessions most days work better than one long session each week. Keep each session brief and focused on the sounds the child is still learning.

Can I make flashcards from a photo of a worksheet?

Yes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition, and you can review the cards before studying. The free plan includes 3 generations per month.

Do I need to pay to print the cards?

Printing needs PDF export, which is included with Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
