Chicken Checkers: Learning About Ch Sounds

Children learn about the "ch" sound in this playful chicken checkers worksheet. A digraph is created when two letters blend together to create a new sound. Students first learn to identify the "ch" digraph, then circle words on the checkerboard that begin with this letter combination. Designed for a kindergarten and first-grade reading and writing curriculum, this resource helps children develop phonological awareness and begin to identify spelling patterns.
