Chocolate Sound Lines

Digraphs are two letters which work together to make one sound. When your child starts to read words containing digraphs, you can draw a line underneath the letters to remind them that two letters work together to stop them from sounding out each letter.

For this activity, use a chocolate finger to underline digraphs and put a chocolate button underneath single-letter sounds.

Make a CVC word containing a digraph e.g. chip using magnetic letters. Underline the digraph ch using a chocolate finger and put a chocolate button underneath the single letters e.g. i and p.

Encourage your child to say each sound then blend them together to read the word e.g. ch-i.p, chip. Repeat with other CVC words and then eat the chocolate fingers and buttons when you have finished.
