About this resource

CH, SH, TH, and WH consonant digraphs are practiced across six worksheet activities in this phonics packet: circling the digraph in a list of words (chair, fish, whale), filling in the missing digraph to complete a word, matching seven digraph words to their pictures, underlining the digraph within full sentences, completing sentences with a fill-in digraph blank, and finally writing an original sentence for each of eleven digraph words. The word list deliberately places digraphs in both the initial position (chair, ship, whale) and the final or medial position (fish, thumb, wheel), so students practice recognizing the same four digraphs wherever they fall in a word. Six supplementary picture images accompany the matching activity.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Identify the CH, SH, TH, or WH digraph within a printed word.
Complete a word by filling in the correct digraph in either the beginning or ending position.
Compose an original sentence using a given digraph word correctly.

Teaching tips

Work through the circle-the-digraph and missing-digraph pages first, since they isolate digraph recognition before the later pages embed the same words in full sentences.
Use the six supplementary picture images alongside the match-word-to-picture page so students have a visual anchor for words like 'whale' and 'wheel.'
Save the write-a-sentence page for a follow-up day, since it asks students to independently compose sentences for all eleven digraph words rather than complete a guided task.

Skills covered

Digraph identification — students circle or underline the CH/SH/TH/WH digraph within printed words and full sentences.
Digraph spelling — students fill in the missing digraph to complete a word in both beginning and ending positions.
Sentence composition — students write an original sentence for each of eleven digraph vocabulary words.
