Why build your own blend cards

Consonant blends, where two or three consonants sit together and each keeps its own sound, are hard to find in a printable set that matches your reading list. A phonics blends flashcards set made from your own words, such as the ones in this week's story or spelling list, practices exactly what your learners are meeting.

Turns your own word lists and worksheets into blend flashcards
Groups cards by blend family so you can teach one pattern at a time
Repeats missed cards more often with spaced repetition
Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV on the Plus plan

Example phonics blend flashcards

What blend starts the word "frog"?fr. Both consonant sounds are heard, f then r, blended together without a vowel between them.

Is "sh" a blend?No. "sh" is a digraph, two letters that make one new sound, while in a blend each letter keeps its own sound.

What blend ends the word "hand"?nd. Both n and d keep their sounds and are pronounced quickly together at the end of the word.

Name three s-blends that start words.st, sp and sk, as in stop, spin and skip. Each s is followed by a consonant that keeps its sound.

What three-letter blend starts the word "strap"?str. All three consonants are heard in sequence before the vowel a.

Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a worksheet. The text is read and turned into flashcards that match your lesson.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and easy ones come back later, so blends like bl, st and str stick without endless re-reading.

Study in the browser

The free plan lets you study on any device with a browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export when you need a printed or imported set.

How it works

Upload your list

Add the blend lists, reading passages or worksheet photos you already have. No credit card is needed to start.

Review the cards

Check the generated fronts and backs, then remove or edit any card that does not match your class.

Practice on a schedule

Study a short session each day. The spaced repetition schedule decides which blends need more practice.

Blends are easiest to learn in families. Group the l-blends (bl, cl, fl), the r-blends (br, cr, tr) and the s-blends (st, sp, sk) and add a few three-letter blends like str and spl once the pattern is familiar. Shorter sets work better than long ones, so limit each session to the family you are working on.

Once the cards exist, the spaced repetition schedule handles the rest. Learners see the words they miss more often, and you can export to PDF or Anki on a paid plan when you want a printed copy or a card set for another app.

Frequently asked questions

What are the most common phonics blends to practice?

Common ones include l-blends (bl, cl, fl), r-blends (br, cr, tr), s-blends (st, sp, sk) and three-letter blends like str and spl. Start with the ones your learners meet in their current reading list.

How many blends should one flashcard set cover?

Most learners do well with one blend family at a time, such as the l-blends, before mixing families. Smaller sets are easier to review daily with spaced repetition.
