With this set, the child you're teaching can make an easy transition from the C-V-C (consonant-vowel consonant) words like f-a-t and t-o-p to words with digraphs and blends-which are the two-letter consonant combinations like 'fl' and 'st.' So with the flip of a card or two, f-a-t becomes fl-a-t. and t-o-p becomes st-o-p. The two vowel packs with a total of 45 cards including 'oo' 'ea,' and 'ie' opens a world of learning and spelling possibilities; st-o-p becomes st-oo-p and st-ee-p. Hmm, what do those new words mean?
