Keyword/Sound Chart Pictures


How To See The Pictures:  The picture files are available from the links shown in green below.  Each link will download a zip file to your computer that contains multiple images.  You won't be able to see the images on your computer until the file is unzipped.  To unzip the file, double click on it.  Click Extract all. Select the location where you want to store the file, make sure the Show extracted files when complete box is checked, then click Extract.  Now you will be able to open the file and see and use the pictures.

Teachers, tutors, and parents may download these pictures and use them to create bulletin boards, flashcards, games, and other instructional materials for their own students, as needed.  These pictures are copyrighted by Kathryn J. Davis and may not be shared except through links to this site.  The pictures may not be used to make materials to sell.  

After students have learned the sounds from the sound story and their matching letters and letter patterns, they will be ready to use key words to reinforce the sounds for many of the new patterns they are learning.  
The links for the Keyword/Sound Chart Picture Files are shown below.  These files will open as zip files.  

You will see the key word pictures on the sound charts in the student books at Level 4 and Level 5.  To hear the sound charts read aloud, look for Book 1 Sound Charts and Book 2 Sound Charts under the AUDIO menu tab (scroll down as needed) and look for Advanced Sound Charts under the VIDEO menu tab.  This set of charts includes all of the patterns taught at all levels.

All Materials Copyright 2025 or earlier by Kathryn J. Davis, All Rights Reserved
My goal is for as many people as possible to use this reading program to teach students how to read.  All of the materials you need are available on this site as free PDF files.  The materials are copyrighted, but I give permission to all teachers, parents, tutors, and school systems to download and print any of the PDF files for use with the students they teach.    However, they are not to make a profit from distributing the materials.  If you don't have a printer, using a print shop is allowed.  If preferred, you may work with the PDF files directly from a computer screen, without printing them.  This makes it possible for tutors to teach the program online.  Audio and video files are free to watch and to listen to, and they may be downloaded if desired for use with your  students.  In special cases I may grant written permission to individuals to use the materials in other ways.  You can contact me at [email protected].
