What digraph is in the box? So, what sound are we listening for in the word?” Encourage learners to make the sound, then turn over another card to see if the picture matches the sound and placement in the word.\u003Cbr>• If a picture card is turned over first, encourage learners to name the picture. Then ask,“Which sound are we listening for: the beginning, middle, or end?” Help learners isolate the digraph sound in the word and get them to connect it to the letters that represent the digraph sound. Then, turn over another card to see if the digraph card match is found.\u003Cbr>• The focus of these games is NOT exact spellings; the focus is sounds (or phonemes) . For example, tch (not just ch) is found in the middle of matches, kitchen, and hatchet. Zero in on the SOUND of /ch/ in these words, not that they are spelled tch instead of ch.\u003Cbr>• If you feel a picture will be confusing to your learners, show them the picture card and teach it ahead of time, listening for the targeted sound in the word.\u003Cbr>• You may want to avoid playing a game with both beginning digraphs kn and gn, as they each make the /n/ sound.\u003Cbr>• Middle sounds are the HARDEST of the three sounds to listen for in words. It usually comes AFTER beginning sounds and ending sounds. That is why it is the last skill in this pack.\u003Cbr>• Some learners may struggle to keep up with the game AND listen for the sounds. Instead of playing a matching game where you turn over the cards, simply lay the cards on the table face up and find the matches together.\u003Cbr>• Mix and match the memory game if your learners need an extra challenge. For example, you may have some beginning sounds and some ending sounds in the game. You can even mix in the free phoneme matching game cards, found in this blog post. |  |\n\nDIGRAPH memory match games  \nBeginning DIGRAPH memory match  \nBeginning DIGRAPH  \npicture key  \nTHREE PICTURES ARE INCLUDED FOR EVERY DIGRAPH.  \n-sheep, shell, shoe, cheese, chain, chair, thumb, thorn, thermos, wheel, whale, wheat  \n-phases, phone, photo, knee, knit, knife*, wrist, write, wrong, gnome, gnat, gnaw  \n*You may want to avoid using knife if you’re combining these cards with final ph, as f and ph both sound like/f/.  \nBeginning Phoneme Memory Match Digraph Cards: Cut apart before play.  \n\n| sh\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) | ch\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) | th\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| wh\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) | ph\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) | kn\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com](www.thisreadingmama.com) |\n| wr\u003Cbr>©[www.thisreadingmama.com]","cbCairL3SCMrJqHw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairL3SCMrJqHw","pdf",2682170,32,"English","# Quick Notes\n## How to Play (Digraph vs Picture First)\n## Phonics Focus: Sounds Not Exact Spelling\n## Tips and Variations\n# Card Sets and Picture Keys","[{\"question\":\"How should learners play when a digraph card is turned over first?\",\"answer\":\"Read the box question prompt and have learners listen for the first/last/middle sound in the word, then guess which digraph is shown.
