blends ‘nd’, ‘sk’, ‘mp’, ‘lt’, ‘nt’, ‘lk’, ‘st’, ‘ft’, ‘bl’, ‘cl’, ‘fl’, ‘gl’, ‘pl’, ‘sl’, ‘sc’, ‘sk’, ‘sm’, ‘sn’, ‘sp’, ‘st ’, ‘sw’, ‘tw’, ‘fr’, ‘scr’, ‘str’, ‘br’, ‘cr’, ‘dr’, ‘gr’, ‘pr’, ‘tr’, & ‘nk’; consonant digraphs; double-vowel rule; bossy ‘e’ rule; soft ‘c’ and ‘g’; long vowels; dipthongs; vowel sounds with “r”; silent letters.
Students master common blends that come at the beginning and ending of words. They then learn double-letter sounds as well as the rules to tell them when the vowels say their long sounds. Students also learn the rule that teaches them when the letter ‘c’ says ‘s’ as in ‘cent’ and when the letter ‘g’ says ‘g’ as in ‘gent’. After this, students learn increasingly complex sounds (known as diphthongs). They also learn the vowel sounds with ‘r’ and how to recognise silent letters in words.
