This learning resource focuses on phonics, specifically on the patterns of blends, digraphs, and silent-e. Students will embark on a 'word adventure' to learn how different letter combinations work together in English. • Blends are introduced as two consonants that blend together but maintain their individual sounds (e.g., 'st' in 'stop'). • Digraphs are explained as pairs of letters that combine to create a single sound (e.g., 'sh' in 'ship'). • Silent-E is described as the quiet 'e' at the end of a word, which influences the vowel to say its name (e.g., 'cake'). The resource includes a mission where students will cut out word cards, categorize them, and glue them into the right sections: Blends, Digraphs, and Silent-E.
