Why custom cards beat a generic download

Printed phonics cards help early readers connect letters to sounds, but they work best when they match the exact words and patterns in the lessons a child is doing this week. A Oxford phonics flashcards PDF downloaded from somewhere else rarely lines up with your book or your classroom order, so the practice drifts from the lesson.

  • Cards follow your own phonics pages, word lists and sound charts
  • Spaced repetition brings back the sounds a learner finds hard
  • Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition
  • PDF export for printing is available on Plus
Example phonics flashcards for early readers
What sound does the digraph sh make?The /sh/ sound, as in ship and fish. Two letters that make one sound.
What is a split digraph?Two vowel letters split by a consonant, such as a_e in cake, where the first vowel says its long name sound.
What does the final silent e do in hope compared with hop?It makes the vowel say its long sound, so hope has a long o and hop has a short o.
What is a consonant blend?Two or three consonants said together with each keeping its own sound, such as st in stop or bl in black.
What is a CVC word?A consonant, vowel, consonant word with a short vowel, such as cat, pen or mop.

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, slide deck, text file or photo of a phonics page and get flashcards that follow your own word lists and sounds.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know move to longer gaps, so sounds stick without rereading the whole unit.

Export on Plus

Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, so you can print a classroom set or load the cards into another app.

Frequently asked questions

How many phonics flashcards should a child practice in one session?

Keep sessions short and add only a few new sounds at a time. Mix new cards with older ones so earlier sounds stay fresh.

How do I use flashcards to teach short and long vowel sounds?

Put a word on the front, such as hop or hope, and the sound and reason on the back. Sort the cards into short and long vowel piles as the learner gets them right.

Can I print these cards as a PDF?

PDF export is part of Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the Free plan without a credit card. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
