Digraphs &
Long Vowels
Using specially coded text, Book 2 will
take students to the next level from building words using single
letter sound matching, to being able to read words that have sounds
which are represented by more than one letter and that various sounds
can be represented in a number of different ways. For example, the
sound ¡®a-e¡¯ as in cake can also be spelt ¡®ay¡¯ as in day, ¡®ai¡¯ as
in tail as well as ¡®eigh¡¯ as in eight. In Book 2 students will learn
to words with digraphs such as ¡®sh¡¯ as in ship and the long vowels
a, e, i, o and u and all the different ways to spell those sounds.
