Welcome to Phonics Stationery—a delightful way to makewriting time extra special and help children build phonicsskills! Each lined sheet of reproducible stationery is in the
shape of an object or creature whose name includes the featuredvowel, blend, or digraph. You’ll find a unicorn for long u, a frog forshort o, a clown, dragon, and snowman for blends, a phone and ashell for digraphs, and many more. The illustration provides a framefor students’ writing and gives them an image to link to the sound.Below each image is a short word bank to provide additionalexamples of words that include the same sound and spark ideasfor a variety of writing assignments. Emergent writers mightexpand the word bank and draw a small illustration for each word.More advanced writers might write short stories, poems, letters, oreven tongue twisters! Additional ideas for using the stationerysheets in learning-rich activities appear in the next section.
How to Use This BookThe 25 stationery sheets in this book provide a variety of ways to enlivenphonics study by helping children create personal links to written lettersand their sounds. Phonics Stationery helps reinforce long and shortvowels, as well as several consonant blends and digraphs. In thisbook, the term blend is used to describe both the spoken andwritten form of the letter clusters in which each consonantsound is heard. A digraph is a cluster of consonants that standfor one sound.
These pages are designed for flexible use. In addition to theirprimary function as stationery, they can also be used in manydifferent lessons, games, and activities. Suggestions are providedbelow, but you and your students are bound to develop your ownunique ways to put Phonics Stationery to use in your classroom.
Getting StartedLook through the table of contents to choose a stationery sheet for aparticular vowel, blend, or digraph that you would like to reinforce, for example st. Before distributing the stationery sheets, introducechildren to the format with a mini-lesson such as the one that follows for the s-blend st.

1. Write the letters st on chart paper. Ask ifanyone can identify the letters and say thesounds they represent.
2. Below the letters, write the word star anddraw a picture. Blend the word out loud,sweeping your finger beneath each letter.Ask a volunteer to come up and underline or highlight the letters st and say the soundsthey represent.
3. Enlarge the st stationery sheet and displayit. You might cover up or cut off the wordbank for this step. Have the class brainstorma list of words that begin with st as yourecord the words on the sheet.
4. Give each child a copy of the st stationerysheet. Challenge students to list words thatbegin with st. (You might have children listwords that include rather than begin withthe featured sound.) They can choose wordsfrom the class-generated list or choose otherwords. Have students draw a smallillustration for some or all of the words.
5. Ask children to work with a partner andmake up sentences about the words on theirlist. Challenge them to include as manywords as they can in a single sentence.Encourage children to be imaginative andeven a little silly as they think of ways toincorporate the words on the list into a fewsentences. (It might be necessary to conducta similar mini-lesson to introduce vowelsand digraphs.)
6. When children are ready for more of achallenge, have them write sentences ontheir stationery sheet that include wordswith the featured sound. You might alsohave them write letters, poems, riddles,tongue twisters, or descriptions inspired bythe illustration on the stationery sheet.
Imaginary JourneysCreate a list of real or imaginary locations toaccompany the blends. For example, you mightwrite Florida, Pleasantville, Snowflake Mountain,Starfish Cove, and Swan Lake. Or you might letstudents explore maps and globes to generatetheir own list. Next, tell students to put on their“walking shoes” and accompany you on a trip.Taking turns, describe what you “see” on yourway to each location. You might start the class offby stating, “On our flight to Florida I saw a flag,but that’s not what Sally saw. Let’s hear whatSally saw.” Sally would then repeat what you saw,describe a new fl sight, and call on someone else.She might say, “On our flight to Florida, Ms.Smith saw a flag and I saw a flattened fly, butthat’s not what James saw. Let’s hear what Jamessaw.” Have a student come to the chalkboard andrecord the items that have been seen. When theclass gets stumped for new words, change to adifferent blend and start again with students whohave not yet had a turn.
Word BuildersMake a set of pink flashcards with a blend ordigraph on each. Make another set of blueflashcards with a word family on each, such as:
-ick -ag -ight-eck -im -ot-ace -ed -in-ip -op -ain
Let students work in pairs to create as manywords as they can by combining one pink andone blue card. You might also have studentscreate “new” words and give them originaldefinitions. Ask volunteers to stand in front ofthe class and present the invented words withexaggerated movements. Have them place thebeginning sound in one hand and the endingsound in the other. Instruct them to say each

sound separately while holding up the appropriatecard, and then to blend together the sounds.
Phonics Collage PostersDisplay several large sheets of posterboardaround the classroom. Attach a sheet ofstationery to each sheet of posterboard.Distribute magazines to students and let themwork alone or in pairs to find and cut out imageswhose names feature each displayed vowel,blend, or digraph. After allowing time to findsome images, have students share what they havecut out. If an image fits with a displayed sound,invite the student to glue or tape the image to theappropriate poster and to write the name of theimage beneath the picture.
Sound CircleMake a copy of each stationery sheet and writethe vowel, blend, or digraph in large, colorfulletters in the center of the page (for example,long a). For this activity, you will also need a soft foam ball and a large open space. Selectenough stationery sheets so that each child hasone and place these sheets in a large circle on thefloor. Ask children to select a sheet and stand orsit behind it. Toss the ball to a student. Explainthat this student should say the sound(s)represented by the vowel, blend, or digraph infront of him or her. For a greater challenge, havestudents say one or more words that begin withor include this sound. Once a player completes aturn, the player tosses the ball to someone whohas not yet had a turn.
Stationery for Any OccasionBefore you begin using the stationery, lookthrough the illustrations to get ideas foradditional ways to use the sheets. You might usethe stationery to connect to other lessons. For
example, you might use the long e stationery(tree) for a unit on trees or as part of a seasonalstudy. The sn stationery of a snowman workswell for winter, short a (basket) for spring, andlong o (boat) and digraph sh (shell) for summer.You might also tie the stationery into children’sexperiences at school. For example, childrencould write about their experience in a schoolperformance on the s-blend sheet of a stage. Oryou could compile all of the animal images toform a phonics zoo. Have fun as you find ways touse the stationery in ways that best meet theneeds of your students.
