This is a set of 8 vowel pockets. (You'll be surprised at how quickly you'll need several to eat an Elephant.) Vowel Pockets are quite handy when marking the Vowel Friends during the initial step in eating the lesson's Elephant Word. Simply distribute the number needed for the word to your students and give them the hands on experience of finding and marking the Vowel Friends. Vowel Pockets come laminated to stand up to regular handling!
