I created this FL consonant blend PowerPoint to engage the attention of a late-speaking 8-year-old, who is having difficulty hearing consonant blends. He had already studied phonics before and failed, so was disillusioned. It worked. He loved it! Find more, coming soon, in my shop: Lilibettes Resources.
