Build phonemic awareness with a printable digraph sorting activity.

Digraphs… Two Letters, One Sound!

Let’s start with the tricky terminology! In the world of phonics, a digraph is a two-letter combination that creates one sound. The English language consists of both consonant digraphs and vowel digraphs. Consonant digraphs can be found at the beginning or the end of a word (or anywhere in between), depending on the sound they make. Vowel digraphs are usually found in the middle of a word.

A Great Addition to Your Classroom Phonics Centers

This is a monstrous sorting activity designed for your students to use when practicing digraphs. Students will identify pictures, read words, and sort them onto the corresponding digraph monster sorting mat.
