Consonant Blends Worksheets

Level 3 starts with blends at the front of a word, bl, cl and fl first, and ends with blends at the back, such as -nd, -nt and -mp. There are 9 lessons. A word is held back until its blend has been taught, so plan arrives in lesson 3.2 and and waits for lesson 3.7. Sort pages file words under columns such as -nd and -mp. The Missing letters pages blank out the blend, and there are word ladders and four short stories. Three-letter blends such as str are not used. A child should know short vowels and digraphs first. The book has 204 pages.

Questions

What does a child need to know first?

Short vowels and the digraphs sh, ch, th, wh and ck. Those are levels 1 and 2 in this shop.

Does it include three-letter blends such as str?

No. Only the blends named above are used, and a script rejects any other cluster.

Where are the answers?

After the worksheets, in the same order, with the same code on each key.

Can I use it with a class?

The license is for personal use, so one family or one child.

AI helped write the listing text, the how-to text, the sentences and stories, the choice of words and the code that builds this file. Scripts tested: the sounds and blends of every practice word against the lesson on its page, the approved word list, repeats on a page and across the book, every answer key against its worksheet, blend sorts by rule, the contents links, overflow and ink near the page edge.
