Make Sounds Visible. Support Articulation. Build Strong Readers.

The Personal Sound Wall (Write-On) is a student-facing tool designed to make sounds visible, organized, and accessible for students learning to read and spell. Students actively record graphemes on their sound wall as phonics patterns are introduced, strengthening connections between articulation, sound, and print. This foldable, write-on reference supports daily phonics instruction and aligns with the Science of Reading.
