About this resource

Description

Consonant digraphs are two letters that team up to make one brand-new sound, and ch is one of the very first digraphs young readers meet. The Chester Loves Cheese CH Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet gives first graders a short, friendly story packed with ch words — Chester, chipmunk, chestnut, cheese, cheddar, cheeks, chair, chicken, chuckle, and Charlie — so children practice blending that single /ch/ sound while they read for meaning. Because every ch word sits inside a real sentence, students learn to decode the digraph and understand the story at the same time.

This first grade ch digraph worksheet is built as a three-page set. Page one holds the illustrated story about Chester the chipmunk and the wedge of cheddar he shares with his friend. Page two asks five fill-in-the-bubble comprehension questions plus two word-box sentences that send readers back into the text to hunt for ch words. Read the story aloud together first, then let children reread it on their own before they answer. Print it for morning work, a phonics center, a guided reading group, or take-home practice.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • A four-paragraph ch phonics story with a full-color illustration
  • 5 fill-in-the-bubble comprehension questions
  • 2 word-box sentences using ch words from the story

Three things make this resource work. First, it puts the digraph in context — children meet ch at the start of words like chipmunk and cheese and inside words like munch, which builds flexible decoding instead of memorizing. Second, the questions move from simple recall to reasoning about why the chicken chuckled, so the Chester Loves Cheese CH Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet strengthens thinking as well as sounding out. Third, the word box gives developing readers a supported way to spell two tricky ch words, while the extra choice word keeps them reading carefully instead of guessing.

Keep the ch sound going after the page is finished. Hunt for ch words on cereal boxes and lunch menus, sort picture cards into ch and sh piles, or challenge children to add one more sentence to Chester’s story using two ch words. Chomp, chew, and chatter are fun to act out with a partner. Families can also let children retell the story from the picture, which builds sequencing and oral language right alongside the phonics practice.
