Two Letters, One Sound: Consonant Digraphs

WonderKidsToy printable learning

A focused next step after simple CVC words. Seven units introduce sh and ch, compare them, explore voiced and unvoiced th, acknowledge accent variation in wh, practise final ck, and bring the patterns together. Children read, map sounds, match meanings, sort, restore spellings, compare pairs, edit, write from dictation and use words in sentences. Seven original short passages support shared reading and meaning checks. Adult directions and support words are provided. These passages are intended for shared reading with adult help.

Choose your paper size

The ZIP includes the same 96-page book in US Letter and A4 PDFs. Choose one paper-size edition; the two files do not double the amount of different content. Open the ZIP, read the adult notes and print a test page on the matching paper before selecting more pages. Follow the book’s own printing and materials guidance.

Questions before you print

Is this for a child just learning letters?

It is designed for learners who already know common consonant and short-vowel sounds and can blend simple CVC words. Many are ages 5-8, but readiness matters more than age.

How many pages will I receive?

Two 96-page PDFs, one US Letter and one A4, contain the same material. There are 96 unique content pages, including 84 guided lesson/practice pages, four opening pages, seven answer pages and one closing teaching page.

Are the passages fully decodable?

They are short, original adult-supported passages with preview words and questions. They are not intended for unaided decoding. An adult should read unfamiliar words and directions as needed.

Are answers included?

Yes. Each unit has an answer page covering closed-response work and the dictation script, plus sample responses or criteria for open writing. Different meaningful responses are accepted when a clue allows them.

Can I print in black and white?

Yes. The pages use text and clear lines without color-only answers. Print at 100% or Actual size on the matching paper, and test one page first.

May I use it in my classroom?

The included license permits one purchaser household or one educator's own classroom. Redistribution, resale, public uploading and source-file sharing are not permitted.
