Years ago, I created two sets of Phonics Cards. The first set has the alphabet and beginning blends & digraphs while the second set covers ending blends & digraphs, long vowels, and diphthongs.
Today, I’m finishing them off with a third set – a BONUS Phonics Cards Set, which contains short vowels, less common long vowels, and w+a / squ+a.
Just like our other phonics card sets, this is a subscriber freebie. Not a subscriber? You can subscribe HERE or later in this post.

18 Bonus Phonics Cards
What’s included in this bonus set?
- Short Vowel Cards- with just lowercase a, e, i, o, and u listed at the top {Our first phonics set has these cards, but with both uppercase and lowercase letters listed at the tops of the cards.}
- Short e – EA as in bread, sweat, and head
- Long a – EA as in great, EI as in eight, & EY as in prey
- Long e – E_E as in eve, IE as in shield, & EY as in key
- Long i – _Y as in cry and I as in child or sign
- Long o– O as in old or troll
- Long u – OU as in soup
- W+A as in water or wash
- SQU+A as in squash or squat
I recommend hole punching a hole in the top left corner of each card and adding it to your other phonics cards to create a flip book. This way, you can include all of them together or just the phonics skills your learners need to work on.
This also makes your phonics cards portable. The ring can also be hung on a hook right on a bulletin board, at a center, in your kitchen, or at the learner’s work area.
