How to Effectively Teach Digraphs

- When teaching about digraphs, I like to call them “best friends” - a pair of letters that love to work together! In this video, I’ll help you create a student-friendly definition of digraphs to share with your class. I’ll also provide some examples and activities for teaching digraphs to your students.

I love sharing your videos for teachers struggling with teaching a particular concept. You are succinct, clear and to the point.
Such kind words, thank you!
exactly what I need for my mid-term in ED338 Special Needs. Thank you so much.
I plan on sharing many of your videos with my daughter this summer as she is currently student teaching and has not received this kind of thorough instruction in her undergraduate studies! Keep on making these excellent teaching videos, please!!!!
Oh that's awesome! Best of luck to her! And let me know if there's anything in particular she needs support with.
I taught the ones you mentioned (except ng) but also “ph” bc of the questions around the name “Sophia” so it naturally led to a discussion on ph! I also took your tip to introduce hearing them before attaching the letters- great advice! I also had them do the scavenger hunt with a highlighter bc I didn’t do that and it was a BIG flop just like you demonstrated and then after we identified them and highlighted them it was a HUGE success 🎉 Thank you!
Great to hear!
This is a great place for Reading instruction. Thanks for taking your time for sharing knowledge.❤
You're so welcome! Thanks for your kind words!
I'm currently studying for the teacher's license test Foundations of Reading and I get so relieved when I see you've covered topics that come up 😅. These videos have been an awesome resource.
Oh good!!
Thank you very much very informative
My colleagues and I were just talking about this! I teach grade 2 in Canada and this year I find myself doing more teaching of diagraphs than reviewing them. I’m sure there are lots of factors contributing to this trend
Ooh yes!! I've also heard that the ages in the US vs. Canada are different, so kids are at different places developmentally :)
Thank you so much for your vidéos ! Great help !
You're very welcome!!
We have been doing QU SH CH and TH with my three year old and it’s really helpful I think to put them out there right with the alphabet introduction because they really are distinct sounds
Awesome!
k2: sh and ch only so far
'S H SH - /sh/ /sh/ /sh/' works well for me when the class get a little loud. (Sheep on a sheep is a great accompanying book)
speeding up ch ch ch ch.. like a train with a final 'choo choo' is also fun.
Very helpful 😃
I love the idea of best friends. I was wondering if you would do this exact lesson with students are older or would you do something a little different. Thanks for any input.
I would do the same lesson with older students, yes! They could probably move to seeing the words in context a bit sooner than younger students, but really depends on how quickly they grasp it!
I love all of these activities! I teach ch, sh, th, wh and ck. I'm using the Words their Way program but I'm curious about ph? My kiddos were asking why we hadn't learned about that one. What are your thoughts?
Hey Kristine! Of course, you can touch on "ph" as a digraph - it's not a very common digraph (ironic that "ph" is in the word digraph itself, though!!) so some programs don't prioritize it.
Lovely
Which digraphs do you teach? Type them in the comments!
In Kindergarten, we teach ch, sh, th, ck, qu, and ng. Our curriculum doesn't teach wh explicitly, but it does have about three lessons on question words, so I teach wh during those lessons.
Makes total sense to incorporate them at that time!
THANK YOU- ONE IS NEVER TO LEARN INDEED!
We are doing these digraphs in grade 1
Is there a specific way that you teach ck or do you just specify that this is a particular digraph that comes at the end of a word or at the end of a short vowel syllable?
You said it perfectly - a digraph that comes at the end of a short vowel syllable! Exactly how I teach it.
Hi I would like you to teach my 5 yrs old about sound diagraps it's possible 🙂
I hope these tips help!
Can we teach ng as a blend ?
I usually teach "ing" as a glued sound!
I cant find your th video!!
Hey Caitlin! Can you give me a bit more detail as to what you're looking for?
@@learningattheprimarypond oh! Thanks for responding! It was the one you did with the TH diagraph voiced or non voiced with examples. You showed 3 pictures of th words to ask what the 3 words had in common. (Th). And then more pictures to divide them into different sounds. Voiced or non voiced. You explained very carefully the difference between the TH voiced in one word (bathe) and a non voiced th word (bath).
You know that video. 😔🌈🙏

Si you have a channel where you just teach without giving a lot of explanation.
