Blends and Diagraph Printables

Digraphs, Consonant Blends, and Word Families are the building blocks of reading.  Children can arrange and rearrange these printable cards to form a variety of new words.  These cards are 2″ in height making them just right for your pocket charts. We personally love our tabletop pocket chart. It’s self-standing, folds in half for storage, and has a large pocket to store our cards in.

Kindergarten Spelling Notebook

Each page of our spelling notebook features a single letter and words that begin with that letter.  We recommend printing your notebook either double-sided or in a booklet form.  Space has been allotted for a three-hole punch or alternate form of binding. These spelling notebooks make great take-home booklets for children to work on their words with their parents and a great supplement alongside Dolch word curriculum.  Encourage students to write in their spelling notebooks as they learn new words.  When your student is struggling with a specific word, help them add it to their notebook for easy reference later on.  Soon, students will not need to look back, and will remember how to spell common words.

Encourage children to learn as many words as they can by rewarding them with a small sticker next to the word they’ve learned. Show children that they can add words to their spelling notebook with the additional line provided.  Give them a goal of finding at least one new word for each letter.

Blends Worksheets & Printables

Once children have learned all of the individual letter sounds, they can begin to learn blends.  Consonant blends are two letters that when brought together they “blend” to form a sound.  The sound still allows for the individual letters to be heard.  (When two consonants come together to form a new sound it’s called a digraph.  Below you’ll find a handy list of the different blends and digraphs you can teach your children.  Use our free Blends printables to create hand-on learning opportunities in your classroom.

Blends:

Beginning Blends:  bl, gl, cl, pl,fl, sc, sm, st, sk, sn, sw, sl, sp, br, fr, tr, cr, gr, dr, pr
