More About This Resource
This Sound Wall with Mouth Pictures & Sound Wall Locks is a comprehensive, Science of Reading-aligned tool designed to help students master phoneme awareness and phonics. Unlike traditional word walls, this sound wall organizes words by sounds (phonemes) rather than alphabetical order, providing students with a more effective reference when reading and spelling. With mouth articulation pictures representing diverse children and sound wall locks to secure student engagement, this resource offers an interactive, research-based approach to phonics instruction.
The sound wall includes all the materials needed to systematically teach phonemes, making it perfect for educators who want to align their instruction with Science of Reading best practices, such as those suggested by LETRS. Whether used in print or digitally via Google Slides, this resource offers versatility in the classroom.

I looked at a lot of Sound Wall bundles on TPT before purchasing one. This one was by far the best from preview and description. Happy with it once purchasing as well.
Cynthia Stern –
I started to use this at the beginning of the year. It helped with the kids seeing the faces of the sounds. But then I had to take it down to put something up for the district. I am sad that I couldn’t use it. I plan to try again next year.

I took a long time to choose a sound wall resource and am so happy I went with this one. It is very comprehensive and easy to use. I love the real mouth photos – they were definitely a selling point. There are so many options for how to present this to the children that it makes it hard to choose what is best (but that’s my flaw not the products).
