Decodable Alphabet Chart

The Short Vowel Phonics Decodable Alphabet Chart is a radically new alphabet chart designed to present the alphabet in the simplest manner possible.

The Decodable Alphabet Chart uses short vowel words and simple black-and white drawings for all twenty six letters of the alphabet. For example: ant is for a; ten is for t. Most of the words are only two or three letters. The exceptions are gift, nest, quilt and zig-zag. Each letter is written in upper and lower case in Pen Time font.

The Chart comes is available in a variety of sizes. Each size comes with a black- and-white(b/w) version and a "to-be-colored" version. Blackline masters are available on CD Rom.

The Decodable Alphabet Chart provides both a hands-on method and a variety of options in teaching the sound/symbol relationships of the alphabet to your student(s). The use of the short vowel phonetic words in the alphabet chart was designed to facilitate teaching and learning.
