Getting Started
1 Copy and cut apart the poem strips. Make one set of strips for each
file-folder pocket chart you are creating. You may wish to number the
strips to provide sequencing support.
2 Copy and cut apart the picture and word cards. For each set of consonantblend cards, consider including several “distractor” cards (from this
lesson) that do not represent the target blend. This will encourage children
to listen carefully for beginning letter sounds as they say each word.
3 Place the materials (poem strips and picture and/or word cards) in the
“pocket” on the back of each file-folder pocket chart.
4 Copy the poem on chart paper or the board.

Teaching With the File-Folder Pocket Charts
1 Introduce the poem by saying, “I’m going to say some words. Listen carefully
and see if you can tell me what sounds you hear in all of the words.”
2 Slowly say the following words: flag, fly, and flute. While speaking, emphasize

and extend the /fl/ sound to help students isolate it. Talk about the part of
each word that sounds the same. Explain that the sound children hear at the
beginning of each word is the /fl/ sound. As you say this, write one of the
words on the board, underline the letters fl, and reinforce that this word starts
with the /fl/ sound.
3 Tell children that in today’s poem, they will work with words that have the
/fl/ sound. Hold up each picture card, and as children say the name for the
picture, place the card on the easel or board tray. Point to the picture card
and repeat the word. Use the word cards to make the connection to print.
Read the words with children, reinforcing the sound-letter relationship. Place
the cards next to the corresponding pictures.
4 After reviewing the pictures and words, invite children to suggest additional
f l words, such as f lower, f light, and f luffy. List these on chart paper or the
board as children say them.

on chart paper (or the board). Read it
aloud, pointing to each word in turn
to reinforce the left-to-right directional
movement of reading. As you read,
pause to place the picture and word
cards in order to complete each line
(using tape or removable wall adhesive).
As you select each card, say the word,
emphasizing the blended-letter sound.
Confirm that the word contains the /fl/
sound (or, in the case of a “distractor”
card, that it doesn’t, and then make a
different selection).

Review each component, then let children
work with the file-folder pocket charts independently, in pairs, or in small
groups. Encourage them to repeat the activity several times to reinforce
learning (removing and mixing up the poem strips and cards each time).

Extending the Lesson
Blend Play: Play a simple game loosely based on the strategy used in the
card game War. Have children work in pairs. Give each child ten picture cards
that depict items beginning with various l-blends. At the same time, each child
turns over one card and places it on the table or rug in front of him or her.
If students happen to flip over cards representing the same blend, the partners
earn a point. The object is not to pit individual against individual; partners are
to play the game with the intent of saying words aloud and recognizing
matching blends.

Black and Blue: Reinforce l-blends with items that are colored black or
blue. In the center of a piece of unlined white paper, have children draw a circle
and write the word blue inside it. Then have them draw six lines extending out
from the circle, to make a web. With students, brainstorm a list of things that
are blue, such as blueberries, the sky, and a mailbox. Invite children to draw
(in blue crayon) one item at the end of each line to complete the web. Have
children repeat for the color black, drawing in black crayon on a web things
that are black, such as a bat, a black bear, and the night sky. Copy the words on
blank cards (see Picture and Word Card Templates, page 144) for independent
exploration.
