Sound boxes, sometimes called Elkonin boxes, split a word into its sounds: one box for each. Each picture on this sheet is a short-vowel word with three sounds, and the child says it slowly, touches a box for every sound, then writes one letter in each box.

1st grade
First graders segment a spoken word into its sounds and write a letter for each. Sound boxes make the segmenting visible: three boxes for a three-sound word, one letter per box. This sheet keeps to words where every letter is one sound, and changes the pictures on every print.
