FAQ
What are the most common digraphs taught in 1st grade?⌄
The most common 1st grade digraphs are sh (ship), ch (chair), th (think/that), wh (wheel), and ck (lock) — students learn to identify these pairs as single sound units.
How do digraph identification worksheets build decoding skills?⌄
Identifying digraphs trains students to look at two-letter combinations as a unit rather than sounding out each letter separately, which speeds up decoding and reduces reading errors.
Should digraph identification come before or after blending practice?⌄
Digraph identification should come before blending so students first recognize the digraph as a unit — then blending instruction can incorporate digraphs naturally into word reading.
