Buddy Letters

Now that we have finished learning and reviewing all the names and sounds of the letters, we are starting to figure out different sounds that letters can make in combination with other letters!  Our phonics lessons this week have focused on consonant digraphs (or, as we like to call them in Grade One: buddy letters!)  These sounds are /sh/, /ch/, /th/, and /wh/. 

Here is an interactive website that your child can work on at home to practice working with words that have buddy letters:
