Which pouches for which cards?

Question:

My school purchased a bunch of cloth pouches from you and I'm not sure which cards are supposed to go in which pouch. Can you help?

Answer:

We have a custom-cloth pouch for almost every card we make. Here's a quick overview of which pouches are used for which cards. We'll go from smallest to largest.

Our Small One-Pocket Pouches are approx. 4.25"W x 2.5"H and also come in cork in addition to 100% cotton. These were designed especially for the following cards:

Each pocket in our Two-Pocket Pouches is approx. 5.5"W x 2.75"H. These are  ideal for Matching Cards or the First Stage of Definition Card work. Because our matching cards are color-coded on the back, simply show the child how to put all the cards with the red dot on the back in one pocket and those with the blue dot in the other pocket. 

For definition stage 1 work, these hold the vocabulary cards and full definition cards from our Book and Card Sets. Use this if you'd like your definition cards in separate pouches. If you'd like them all together, use our All-in-One Pouch (below).
