Do you know the difference between digraphs and blends?


Digraphs are when 2 letters represent 1 sound, such as CH representing the /ch/ sound in the word "chip."


Blends are when 2 or more consonants are next to each other and each retain their own sounds, such as in the word "skim" (S & K are each retaining their own sound.)


There are two very tricky blends for kids to learn to read and spell: TR and DR.


Keep listening to learn why these blends are so tricky and how to teach your child to read and spell words with these blends more effectively.
