Turn your phonics lists into flashcards for Australian classrooms
Ready-made printables rarely match the sounds your class is learning this week. Upload your sound charts, word lists or photos of worksheets and DeckOwl builds flashcards from them.
Why custom phonics flashcards work better than generic sets
Generic sets often cover sounds in a different order from the one your class follows, which leaves gaps. Building phonics flashcards Australia teachers can rely on starts with the sounds on your own scope and sequence, so each card matches what children are learning.
- Choose the sounds from your own curriculum document or class list.
- Include digraphs like sh and ai, and split digraphs like a_e, alongside single letter sounds.
- Add example words in context so children practise reading, not only recall.
- Export to PDF on Plus if you want printed cards for a small group.
Built from your material
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a phonics chart, and the flashcards follow the sounds and words in your own files.
Spaced repetition
Cards you find hard come back sooner, so children revisit tricky graphemes before they forget them.
Quizzes and mind maps too
Turn the same material into multiple choice or true/false quizzes with explanations, or a mind map of how the sounds connect.
How it works
Upload your sound list
Add the phonics scope, word list or worksheet you are working from as a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or image.
Generate flashcards
DeckOwl reads the text, including photos of pages, and creates cards with a sound or word on the front and the answer on the back.
Study in the browser
Practise on the free plan, or upgrade to Plus to export to PDF for printing or to Anki.
Spaced repetition then brings back the graphemes a child finds hard, such as split digraphs or trigraphs, more often than the ones they already know. Parents and teachers can see which cards need another pass without rebuilding the deck by hand.

Frequently asked questions
How many phonics sounds should a child learn at once?
Most teachers introduce a small group of new sounds at a time and revisit earlier ones often. Start with the sounds your child is being taught this term.
What order should phonics sounds be taught in?
Follow the sequence your school or state curriculum uses, usually starting with common single letter sounds before moving to digraphs and split digraphs.
Can I print my phonics flashcards or export them to Anki?
PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV exports are paid features on the Plus plan, which is $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser.
Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?
No. You can start on the free plan, which includes 3 generations per month, without adding a credit card. Students get 40% off with a school email.
