About this resource

Description

A consonant digraph is two letters that team up to spell one single sound, and the digraph lists worksheet gives second graders a focused way to hear, spell, and collect those teams. Digraphs like sh, ch, th, wh, ph, and tch appear in hundreds of everyday words, so a reader who cannot decode them stalls on words they already say out loud every day. This printable activity takes the guesswork out of that step by pairing each digraph with a picture the child can name and a sentence the child can read.

Students begin with six picture cards. They say the name of each picture, listen for the two letters that make one sound, and write the missing digraph on the line to finish the word. Then they move to four sentences and supply the missing digraph inside a real word in context, which is where the skill actually has to work. The digraph appears at the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of words across the page, so children practice hunting for the sound wherever it hides rather than only at the start.

What’s Included

  • One printable worksheet page in PDF format, ready to print
  • Six picture cards covering sh, ch, wh, th, ph, and tch
  • Four sentence items with the digraph at the beginning, middle, and end of a word
  • A complete answer key on the final page

Three Reasons This Helps Kids

  • Pictures give every item one correct answer, so children can check their own thinking without a teacher standing over them.
  • Writing the digraph, instead of circling it, builds the spelling habit that carries into daily writing.
  • Reading the sentences aloud connects the sound to meaning, which is what turns decoding into real reading.

Ideas For Teachers And Parents

Use this 2nd grade consonants worksheet as a warm up before a phonics lesson, as a quick check after teaching a single digraph, or as an independent center activity. Ask students to circle the digraph in each finished word with a coloured pencil, then challenge them to hunt through a favourite book and add three more words to each digraph family on the back of the page. A digraph lists worksheet also works well as homework, because families can read the four sentences together in only a few minutes.
