The sounds between letters and words
Blends and digraphs are the bridge from single letter sounds to real reading: two letters that work together at the start of a word. Each row shows a picture and its word with the beginning sound missing — the child says the word aloud, hears the onset, and writes it in from the bank at the top.
Four skill levels match how phonics is taught: digraphs (sh, ch, th, wh), then l-blends, r-blends, and s-blends. Shuffle for fresh words, reroll any single row, and print as many rounds as the lesson needs — the answer key writes each missing sound in green.
