Doing Digraphs Differently 'ee' is full of activities to learn then become proficient using the 'ee' family sound.

Classroom tested and differentiated for the whole class to use, the activities in this unit include - introducing, practicing, using and consolidating learning the ‘ee sound.

 Incorporating different thinking skills will give the students an opportunity to learn in different ways. In this book of black-line masters, you will find activities that require cutting and pasting and physical manipulation of the words to help children learn in as many ways as possible. Crosswords, rhyming words, fill in the missing word and a make your own class chart, are all included in this unit of work.

Concentrating on the ‘ee diagraph, the skills involved are repetitive with easy to read instructions to assist in developing independence from the students. A chance to revise ‘sh’, ‘ch’, ‘wh’ and ‘th’ demonstrates clearly if the children are able to identify the diagraphs in context.

Some of the activities that follow could be used for independent workers or children who might need a challenge but still need to be part of whole class activities.
