The worksheet titled "Identifying Different Letter Combination Sounds: Word Finds, Organizing Words in a Chart, and More" is all about recognizing the sounds of letter combinations and practicing those sounds in different ways.

For example, students might practice the CH combination, which produces both /ch/ and /k/ sounds, using words like "catch" and "chemical" through activities like:

* Word finds that separate the sounds into two different puzzles.

* Circling words that have each sound, like "ch" for "watches" and "k" for "stomach."

* Separating words into different columns according to the letter sounds they make.

* Reading words that are spelled how they sound, like "choozuhz" and writing the correct spelling, "chooses," on the line.

Activities include directions that enable students to do worksheets independently. They include a handy key that helps students decode words that are spelled how they sound, so they can spell them the right way.

Different letter combinations create new sounds that are important for students to learn in order to become better spellers and readers. Fortunately, there are a lot of fun ways for students to practice!

It's best to practice certain letter combinations together. For example, you can practice "OW" words that make the /oh/ or /ou/ sound. Students could complete word finds with words that make each sound, circle "oh" or "ou" according to which sound each word makes, or create a chart where they write each word in one of two columns representing each sound.

Activities like these are good practice, and they can be a great way for students to work together. They can say the words aloud to each other and have a conversation about which sound each word makes.
