Alphabet Sounds Chart - with Letter Formation

An alphabet sounds chart is a great resource for young readers and writers. I created it specifically for my Kindergartner.

Alphabet Sounds Chart

After creating our numbers 1-20 chart, I got LOTS of requests for an alphabet chart, too.

We already have a beginning sounds chart, but the alphabet sounds chart I’m posting today is a little simpler for younger learners.

This sound chart is a little different from other charts that you might find on the web.

For one thing, the letter formation for each letter is included. So, learners can use this as a phonics chart to help them spell as well as remember the formation of their letters. Woot!

Secondly, it includes more than just one sound per letter.

  • The vowels include the long and short sounds.
  • Cc and Gg include both their hard and soft sounds.
  • Xx includes the /z/ sound you hear at the beginning of xylophone and the /ks/ sound at the end of box.
  • Yy has three sounds featured: 1- the /y/ sound at the beginning of yarn, 2- the long i sound at the end of fly, and 3- the long e sound at the end of baby.

 

 

Handling Multiple Sounds with Young Learners

Now, this may seem rather complicated to work on all these multiple sounds, but it can be as simple as this example:

Child is writing: I am… and wants to write happy to end the sentence. She sounds through each letter, using the chart when needed.

If I’m working with the child, when she gets to the -y, I’d say something like: “It sounds like an e goes on the end, doesn’t it? But when we hear that /ee/ sound on the end of words, it is sometimes spelled with a y. Look on your chart and find the letter y. Do you see the baby? The last letter in baby is also a y. Let’s write a y at the end of happy.”

The key is to keep it simple. I doesn’t need to become a full lesson for knowing how to spell these letters with multiple sounds. That wouldn’t be developmentally appropriate for most Kindergartners.

 

Two Quick Notes:

  • This alphabet sounds chart is offered in color & blackline in the download! Keep scrolling to find it below.
  • There are TWO versions. Version 1 on the download includes EAGLE as the key picture for long e. Version 2 includes EGRET as the key picture for long e.

Learning the alphabet and letter sounds can be overwhelming at first glance, but it doesn’t have to be! These Free Printable Phonics Charts for Beginning Readers are colorful and so nicely laid out that your child’s eye will be easily drawn to them.

What is phonics?

I remember phonics books from my elementary public school. I loved it, it was about the only subject I enjoyed. Phonics is a method used in teaching children (people) to read by matching up sounds with different symbols in the alphabet writing system. We had a colorful phonics chart on the wall with cute characters and colorful pictures that drew my eyes to it. 

Decoding words and spelling words are mostly dependent on the phonics method which uses the “sounding out” (phonological awareness) processes.

There are several ways to teach phonics and one beneficial way is by using a phonics chart. When we first started homeschooling I hung a phonics chart on the wall like the one I remembered from school. We also used Abeka curriculum during the early years, and they provided a ton of different phonics charts on colorful cardstock that we referenced frequently. 

Phonics Charts

Using a phonics chart is a fun way to teach the sounding out process and phonics reading concepts for beginning readers. When using phonics charts, the color-coding process helps students focus on phonic patterns and word sound formation.

Benefits of using Phonics Charts

A phonics chart is great for visual learners because they can be put on display or as flash cards. Phonics charts encourage your students to write as they are able to see the charts ready for them to use as a reference.

Computer device. Usually personal computers consist of the following parts: — Studiopedia

Input devices;

Information output devices;

Control devices - mouse.

- Main elements of the system unit .d.

Microprocessor - an electronic circuit that performs all calculations and information processing; executes programs running on the computer and controls the operation of other devices on the computer. Processor speed is one of the important characteristics of a computer. It depends on the so-called clock frequency of the computer. For example, PENTIUM 133 performs 133 million operations per second.

RAM is a storage device directly connected to the processor and designed to store information during program execution. To work with modern programs, the memory must be at least 16 MB.

Floppy disks (FDD) are designed for long-term storage of information and allow you to transfer documents and programs from one computer to another, store information that is not permanently used on the computer, make archival copies of information contained on the hard disk. Currently, 3.5-inch floppy disks with a capacity of 1.44 MB are mainly used.

Hard Disk Drives - Hard Drives (HDD) are designed for long-term storage of information used when working with a computer. On modern computers, hard drives are installed from 1.6 to 8 GB. Typically, a hard disk is divided into several logical disks. The disks are distinguished by their names. The disk name is a letter of the Latin alphabet. Removable diskettes are referred to by the letters "A" and "B". For example, if the hard disk is divided into three logical ones, then these will be disks "C", "D", "E".

Laserdiscs are used for reading information only. Those. information is written to them only usually once, and cannot be changed. The maximum amount of recorded information is 650 MB.

The sound card is designed for playing and recording sound.

Network cards transmits and receives information over the local network.

- Input devices

Keyboard, monitor and mouse are connected to the system unit and are peripheral base PC devices.

Keyboard - a device designed to enter information from the user into the computer.

Mouse - a manipulator for entering information into a computer.

- Information output devices

Monitor - a device designed to display text and graphic information on the screen.

Additional peripheral devices are:

The concept of information and data. Information properties. What is the amount of information. Units of measurement of computer information.

Information - information about objects and phenomena of the environment, their parameters, properties and states, which reduce the degree of uncertainty about them in the completeness of knowledge.

Properties of information: 1) clarity, usefulness, relevance, reliability, completeness and accuracy.

The computer processes information only in digital form. It can only be in two states. In computing, a bit is the smallest piece of computer memory required to store one of the two characters 0 or 1 used for internal representation of data and commands.

1 bit, 1 byte = 8 bits, 1 KB = 1024 bytes, 1 MB = 1024 KB, 1 GB = 1024 MB…

What is computer science? The concept of information processes and information technology. Methods for implementing information processes.

Informatics is the science of obtaining, accumulating, storing, transforming, transmitting, protecting and using information. It includes disciplines related to information processing in computers and networks: both abstract, such as the analysis of algorithms, and quite specific, such as the development of programming languages. Informatics is a science that studies the structure and general properties of information, the laws and methods of accumulation, processing and transmission of information using computers and data transmission channels.

Directions of informatics: Information theory. Practical fundamentals of computer technology (architecture of computer systems, computer networks, interfacing of computers). Programming (software, programming languages, computers and operating systems, hardware). Computational methods (computer graphics, simulation modeling). Artificial intelligence. Information Technology.

3. What is a computer. Computer performance. Platform, purpose and components of the computer. The word computer is English = to calculate (computer) - originally a synonym for computers. A personal computer is a small complex of interconnected devices, each of which is entrusted with a specific function. There is the concept of a basic configuration, which is considered typical; currently there are 4 devices: system unit, monitor, keyboard, mouse. The processor is the main device of the computer, in which all calculations are performed. Another important function of the processor is to ensure the coordinated action of all nodes that make up the computer. Accordingly, the most important parts of the processor are the arithmetic logic unit and the control unit. Inside the processor there are always special cells for the operational storage of processed data and some service information; it deliberately does not provide a place for storing the program. For this important purpose, another device is used in the computer - memory. The devices by which data and commands enter the computer are called input devices. Keyboard is a universal input device. The keyboard allows you to enter numeric and textual information. The standard keyboard has 104 keys and 3 operating modes. In optical-mechanical manipulators, a mouse and a trackball. Currently, optical mice are widely used, in which there are no mechanical parts. In laptops, instead of manipulators, a touchpad is used, which is a rectangular panel that is sensitive to finger movement and finger pressure. The most versatile output device is a monitor, on the screen of which numerical, textual, graphic and video information is displayed.

Computer device. Components of the system unit.

Usually personal computers consist of the following parts: system unit; information input device; information output device. PERSONAL COMPUTER = HARDWARE + SOFTWARE. HARDWARE. A PART is a set of devices that make up a computer SOFTWARE is a set of programs that control the actions of a computer when it is used to solve problems The main elements of the system unit The system (motherboard) board is the basis of the unit, it contains the main electronic elements: a microprocessor , RAM, BIOS (Basic Input / Output System), auxiliary microcircuits, etc. Processor - an electronic circuit that performs all calculations and information processing, executes programs running on a computer, and controls the operation of other computer devices. are one of the important characteristics of a computer. It depends on the so-called clock frequency of the computer. Random access memory (RAM) is a storage device that is directly connected to the processor and is designed to store information during program execution. Read-only memory (ROM) - written by the manufacturer, serves only for reading information. Cache memory - stores the most frequently used operations from RAM. Drives: Hard drives - hard drives (HDD) are designed for long-term storage of information used when working with a computer. Typically, a hard disk is divided into several logical disks. The disks are distinguished by their names. The disk name is a letter of the Latin alphabet. Diskettes are named with the letters "A:". For example, if a hard disk is divided into three logical ones, then these will be drives "C:", "D:", "E:". Laser discs can be used only for reading information (CD-R, DVD-R) or for reading and writing information (CD-RW, DVD-RW). Flash drives.

6. Monitors and video adapters. Their types and main characteristics. Monitor is a device for displaying text and graphic information. The monitor is monochrome (i.e. two-color) and color. The monitor can work in two modes: text and graphic. In text mode, the monitor (ego screen) is conditionally divided into separate sections - familiarity, most often into twenty-five lines of eighty positions. One of two hundred and fifty six predefined characters can be displayed in each familiarity - uppercase and lowercase Latin letters or Cyrillic, numbers, special characters and pseudographics. If the monitor is color, then each familiarity can be assigned a specific background color and symbol. Graphics mode - designed to display graphs, drawings, etc. on the monitor. In addition, you can display any inscriptions with an arbitrary font and letter size. In graphics mode, the monitor, its screen consists of dots (called pixels), each of which can have its own color. The maximum number of dots vertically and horizontally is called the resolution that the monitor has in this mode. Also important is the number of colors that you can work with at the same time. Depending on the technical features that the monitor has and the video card, there are currently three main graphics modes: In order for the monitor to work in the specified mode, the computer must have a video card with sufficient video memory. In addition, not all programs can work in modern SVGA mode, and then only if special drivers are available. The monitor has different screen sizes. There are 14 inch, 17 inch, 19and 21 inch monitors.
