What is a digraph?
A digraph is two letters together that make one sound. Digraphs can be made up of vowels or consonants.
Some examples of consonant digraphs would be ch-, -ch, -ck, gh, kn-, ph, qu-, sh-, -sh, th-, -th, wh-, and wr-.

What consonant digraphs should I teach first?
You often start learning digraphs it is in easily decodable words. You start with short vowel endings like “IP”.
So you would make digraph words like chip and ship. They can decode the word ending and you can teach them the digraphs sound at the start.
Most often you start teacher ch, sh, th, and wh first. They will find words they know life chair, ship, and thumb that work great for teaching the digraphs.
You can start teaching digraphs in kindergarten (ages 5 to 6) and then you learn more in first grade (ages 6 to 7).
