Moving on to Digraphs
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 the Digraph Sounds Sort with Students
Students will color (if you would like them to) the pictures on the side of the sheet. Then they will cut the pictures out. Next, they will pick up one of the pictures and determine which word it represents. They will listen for the digraph sound at the beginning or ending of the word. Finally, they will paste the picture next to the digraph that they hear in the word.
Differentiating the Digraphs Sound Sort
If your students are already digraph masters, try having them write the words once they sort the picture cards. They can write the words below the boxes, on the back of the worksheet, or a new paper. Lined paper may be best for handwriting purposes.
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 digraph identification and eventual spelling!
