Letter Sound Movement Cards is a multisensory phonics set for Pre-K, kindergarten and 1st grade. Each card connects a letter to its sound through three channels at once: a keyword picture to see, a pronunciation cue to say and a simple body movement to do.
The 36 large double-sided cards cover the complete alphabet plus the sounds young readers meet next: the five long vowels, soft c, soft g, s as /z/, and y as both /ē/ and /ī/. That makes the set useful well beyond a first pass through the alphabet.
The back of every card is written for the teacher. Say It gives the sound, Mouth Tip explains how to form it, Move describes the action, Listen for Words offers practice words, and Watch for Common Mix-Ups flags the confusions to look out for. You can teach from the card without a separate script.
A 6-week introduction plan with a daily 10-minute routine, a Movement Chart for the classroom wall and 36 student mini cards turn the set into a full Science of Reading and structured literacy routine for whole group phonics, literacy centers, partner review, small groups and intervention.
A letter-sound assessment tracker with three progress checks helps you see which sounds each child has mastered. The 49-page black and white PDF prints and laminates for daily use.
