digraph sounds – ch sh th

Digraph sh, ch, and th sounds appear often when reading books. We often come across words like ship, thumb, shell, chess, chump, chick, bath, mash, munch, moth, thin, etc. Today, I will be sharing three phonics sounds resources with you, one each for digraph sh, ch, and th.

 

 

The above video is for ‘My book about th words.’

Circle the pictures with ‘th sound’ on page 2. The pictures are throne, thorn, wheel, teeth, thread, thigh, thermometer, turtle, throw, and thirst. On page 3, write ‘th’ and the words with ‘th sound.’

I have also created a pack of worksheets for th sound words that are ideal for introducing the th sound to kindergarten. Do check it.

The instructions to print are mentioned in the book. This book requires only 2 sheets to form an A5 size (approximately) book. The sheets will be printed on both sides. All the pages are numbered so there will not be any confusion.

In case, you have to print on both sides manually, print pages 1 and 8 and pages 6 and 3 first. On the reverse of pages 1 and 8, print pages 2 and 3. On the reverse of pages 6 and 3, print pages 4 and 5.

Since the print will be on both sides, use a thicker sheet.

On the next two pages, children have to frame sentences using the words given. A sentence begins with a capital letter. This rule will help children understand the first word of the sentence. Sentences end with a period or full stop or question mark or exclamation mark. This will make punctuation rules clear and also help children frame sentences. Do not forget to color the pictures.

 

 

 

Do check out this fun digraph game that I have created for my little learners. This game will make kids practice reading short vowel digraph words and have fun doing it.

 

 

The next resource for digraph sh words. Click on the above image to download the PDF file for ‘My book about sh words.’

Circle the pictures with ‘sh sound’ on page 2. The pictures are shoes, snail, sheep, shirt, cherry, shower, shorts, shark shadow, and shapes. On page 3, write ‘sh’ and the words with ‘sh sound.’

The last two pages are for writing sentences. Children have to write sentences with ‘sh sound words’ whose pictures have been provided. The words are dish, shell, ship, and fish.

I have also created a pack of worksheets for sh sound words that are ideal for introducing the sh sound to kindergarten. Do check it.

 

 

 

After practicing these books, I will recommend reading the above 4 digraph passages that focus on ch, sh, th, and wh sound. These short passages will give your child reading practice while focusing on a single sound.

 

 

My book about ch words is the last resource that I will be sharing with you. Click on the above image to download the PDF file for ‘My book about ch words.’

Circle the pictures with ‘ch sound’ on page 2. The pictures are cheek, chilly, witch, mushroom, chair, charger, ostrich, brush, chew, and chimpanzee. On page 3, write ‘ch’ and the words with ‘ch sound.’

The last two pages are for writing sentences. Children have to write sentences with ‘ch words’ whose pictures have been provided. The words are chips, chin, chess, and chick.

I have also created a pack of worksheets for ch sound words that are ideal for introducing the ch sound to kindergarten. Do check it.

These digraph ch sh th sounds books can be covered over a period of three-five days. I usually like to cover this over a period of three days, two pages each day.
