Students have been learning about digraphs and have been generating a variety of words that begin with ch, sh, and th, and finding them in their books, documenting them on the white board and sharing them with the class. All children are listening for these sounds as they segment words and hear them in the beginning, middle, and end of words. Students are also focusing on identifying them while reading and noticing when they appear in longer words. INQUIRE with your child how they "chunk" a word or look for little words inside of bigger words.
