Digraph Crafts

Who says a week of review has to be boring?
"Not I", said the teacher.
Each day last week we picked a different digraph to review and got a little crafty with it!
 
 
We started off each day with a review of digraph sounds on BrainPOP.
{If you don't have a subscription I HIGHLY recommend it!!}
I had them listen for digraph words. We took those words and others they came up with and wrote them down in a brainstorming session on our chart.
Each day I had the students pick one word from our chart and use it for our craft.
 
Day 1: CH
We took our words from "Our ch words" anchor chart and made a CHocolate CHip cookie! 
 
Day 2: SH
We took our words from "Our sh words" anchor chart and made a fiSH bowl!
 
Day 3: TH
We took our words from "Our th words" anchor chart and made a paTHway of words!
 
Day 4: WH
We took our words from "Our wh words" anchor chart and made a WHale!
 
We had so much fun and the kiddos looked forward trying to figure out what digraph each poster was for!  Perfect way for THem to SHow WHatCHa know!

    1. There really isn't a template because I make the charts out of butcher/chart paper, so sorry.
