Download Free PDF — 5 pages · 12 KB

Fill-in-the-digraph sheets with cut-and-sort cards, so a child both writes the missing digraph and physically sorts words by it.

What’s inside

  • An instructions page.
  • Four sheets: CH, SH, TH and NG. Each has words with the digraph missing (__ip, __at, mu__, su__ on the ch page).
  • 8 word cards at the bottom of each page to cut out and sort into two labeled zones.
