About this resource

Add sh, ch, wh or th to 21 word endings, then read your words aloud. Some endings allow more than one valid answer.

  • Four onset digraphs: sh, ch, wh, and th
  • A 21-item grid of rimes for word building
  • Flexible directions for endings with multiple solutions

Curriculum reference — England: Combining common digraphs with rimes supports early decoding; retain multiple valid word choices. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
