In this lesson, children learn about the phonics digraph “ch,” created by the letters “c” and “h,” which produces the sound heard in words like “cheese” and “check.” Through engaging activities, such as saying words with the “ch” sound and finding items in their environment that contain this sound, students practice and reinforce their understanding. The lesson emphasizes the fun of learning phonics and encourages ongoing practice with family and friends.
  1. What sound do the letters “c” and “h” make together?
  2. Can you think of a word that has the “ch” sound in it?
  3. What fun thing did we do to find words with the “ch” sound?

Meet the Phonics Digraphs: ch

Hello, little friend! Today, we are going to learn about a special sound made by two letters. These letters are c and h. When they come together, they make a new sound: ch! Let’s have some fun with this sound.

Let’s Say “ch” Together!

Can you say “ch”? It’s like the sound you hear at the beginning of the word “cheese.” Try saying it with me: “ch, ch, ch!” Great job!

Words with “ch”

Now, let’s think of some words that have the “ch” sound. How about “check”? Can you say “check”? It’s like when you check if you have all your toys. Let’s say it together: “check, check, check!”

Another fun word is “couch.” A couch is a comfy place where you can sit and relax. Let’s say “couch” together: “couch, couch, couch!”

Fun Activity: Find the “ch” Sound

Let’s play a game! Look around your room and see if you can find something that has the “ch” sound in its name. Maybe you have a chair or a chocolate bar. Can you find something? Great! You’re doing amazing!

Practice Makes Perfect

Keep practicing the “ch” sound with your family and friends. You can even make up silly words with “ch” and have a good laugh. Remember, learning is fun!

You’re a “ch” Champion!

Wow, you did a fantastic job learning about the “ch” sound today! Keep listening for it in words and practice saying it. You’re a “ch” champion now!

Thanks for learning with me. See you next time for more fun with sounds!

  • Can you think of any other words that start with the “ch” sound? Maybe something you eat or a place you like to visit?
  • Have you ever heard the “ch” sound in a story or a song? What was it, and how did it make you feel?
  • Can you make up a silly story using as many “ch” words as you can? Share it with your family or friends and see if they can add more “ch” words to your story!
  1. Ch Sound Hunt: Go on a “ch” sound hunt around your home or classroom. Find three objects that have the “ch” sound in their names. For example, you might find a chair, a chicken toy, or a chalk piece. Share what you found with a friend or family member and practice saying the words together.

  2. Create a “Ch” Collage: Gather some old magazines or newspapers with the help of an adult. Cut out pictures of things that have the “ch” sound in their names. Glue them onto a piece of paper to make a “ch” collage. You can also draw pictures if you prefer. Once your collage is complete, show it to your friends and explain each picture.

  3. Story Time with “Ch”: Make up a short story using as many “ch” words as you can. For example, “Charlie the chicken sat on a chair and ate chocolate.” Share your story with your family or friends. How many “ch” words did you use? Can you think of more to add to your story?

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

“Check, check, check. Couch, couch, couch.”
