These Consonant Digraph Clip Cards are an easy low prep resource for students to recognise digraphs in words. Students simply blend to read the words before clipping a peg or paper clip onto the word that matches the image.
Recognise and name all upper- and lower-case letters (graphs) and know the most common sound that each letter represents
Write consonant–vowel–consonant (CVC) words by representing sounds with the appropriate letters, and blend sounds associated with letters when reading CVC
Read and write some high-frequency words and other familiar words
Segment words into separate phonemes (sounds) including consonant blends or clusters at the beginnings and ends of words (phonological awareness)
Use short vowels, common long vowels, consonant blends and digraphs to write words, and blend these to read one- and two-syllable words
Understand that a letter can represent more than one sound and that a syllable must contain a vowel sound
