Digraph Word Work

If your students know their letter sounds and have mastered CVC words, moving on to phonics instruction with digraphs is a great next step.

Digraphs are combinations of two letters that, when combined, represent one sound. Ch and Sh are examples. They can appear at the beginning or the end of words! You might see it at the start of a word, such as CHeese. They are also at the end of words, like fiSH!

Using These Digraph Word Work Sheets

Students will apply their knowledge of letters and sounds to segment the word pictured into individual phonemes and then fill in the missing sound by matching that sound to the letters that make it.

The first sheet features a variety of CCVC and CVCC words with digraphs. This is a great place to start with students who are moving from CVC word instruction to digraphs.

The second sheet includes an assortment of words that have beginning or ending digraphs, but these words don’t follow the simple CCVC or CVCC pattern and may include vowel teams and other word patterns.

Students will look at the pictures and they will say the name of the word pictured. Then, they will segment each sound in the word and place the letters that correspond to the missing digraph in the empty box.

Finally, they may blend the sounds together to read the word they built and check to see if it matches the word pictured.

I love these missing sound sheets because students can practice identifying letters, sounds, and words. These are perfect for students that are learning to read and spell words with digraphs!

This would be a perfect phonics activity for small group instruction or literacy centers, making lesson planning and prepping easy!

I hope this resource is a big help to you and engages the kids in lots of engaging practice with phoneme segmentation and phoneme isolation while learning digraphs.
