⭐️ Sound Wall with Mouth Pictures – Science of Reading Aligned ⭐️
A sound wall is a way to organize and display the different sounds (or phonemes) we hear in speech. Similar to a word wall, a sound wall (with mouth pictures) is a place for students to reference when they are spelling and reading words. But UNLIKE a traditional A-Z word wall (where words are grouped by their beginning letter), words on a sound wall are grouped by their sounds.
This resource includes all the components you will need to give your students an effective tool as they are learning to read and write!

⭐️ Sound Wall Explicit Lessons and Sound Wall Activities ⭐️
This sound wall teacher guide with lesson plans and student activities includes everything you need to explicitly and systematically introduce and utilize a sound wall with your Kindergarten, 1st grade or 2nd grade students. Over and over, I kept hearing the question, “Christina, I’ve bought my sound wall but now what?” My intention with this resource is to both educate teachers on how to make a sound wall a meaningful learning tool and to provide you with explicit and systematic lesson plans for introducing using a sound wall with your students.

What an incredible bundle! I did lots of research before purchasing a sound wall. This bundle met all of my needs. SOR aligned and so easy to use when you download all the products. I’m so excited and can’t wait to put up my sound wall this year!

I am crossing my fingers and toes that my students (that have varying disabilities) are able to use all of the beautiful photos to support their acquisition of phonemes/graphemes. I am the only one in my school that is using Science of Reading tools and strategies! I watched videos, researched the many products and decided on this one because of the photos, that is the way my students learn best! I can’t wait to get started using all of the lessons and activities! Thank you for explaining things so clearly! Wish me luck! I will appreciate your prayers too! God Bless!

I was looking for an interactive independent sound wall that students could use to reinforce their newly taught spelling patterns. This bundle has been amazing! My second grade students build their own sound wall journal in a binder to help reinforce their spelling patterns. It is a great resource to use in whole group instruction as well as small group instruction.
