Discover how to use pocket charts for word walls. How can you quickly put up a word wall in the shortest time possible? Without tape or clips? Use a pocket chart. I think it’s the best option because all you have to do is to place the cards into the pockets. The transparent trimming holds the card in place while allowing 100% of the card to be seen. When you’re ready to teach something new, just swap out the cards.

Pocket Charts for Word Walls

Tabletop phonics pocket chart with letter cards and mouth pitures for sound formation: This phonics pocket chart is helpful for teaching the basics about alphabet letters and pronunciation. There are big cards that have the pronunciation along with what the mouth looks like when the word is being pronounced. The quality of the material is strong and superior. There is Velcro on the bottom in order to stick the pieces together to form a tabletop chart.

If you want to use pocket charts for word walls, I’m recommending the Lauri Midsize one from Amazon but you can get tons of other sizes or colors – just as long as it is strong. I actually tried to make my own DIY pocket chart a long time ago. It was cute but it did not last beyond the school year!
