  • Begin collecting bottle caps. We personally don’t use them, but family members do. I asked them to start putting them aside for us, and before long we had plenty of caps. You can also use magnetic letters if that works better for you.
  • Write letters on the top of your bottle caps –  If you have enough bottle caps to write each letter twice, your child will have all the letters they need to complete the spelling cards.
  • print and cut out the consonant blend worksheets. For added durability, print on cardstock and laminate.

Trigraphs Worksheets

If you child is new to consonant clusters, you may want to start out with some interactive notebooks and games. This will give them a chance to learn what each trigraph, or consonant clusters is, how to say them, and how to spell to them.

Now it is time to practice with the spelling mats.

Depending on the level and attention span of your child or students, here are a few options.

  1. Give out all the spelling mats and bottle caps and let the student solve them all at once.
  2. Choose two or three consonant clusters to work on, and give the students all the bottle caps.
  3. You could do the same as step two, but only give out the bottle caps that will work with the spelling mats you provided.
  4. Only give the student one consonant cluster at a time and provide just a few bottle caps. Maybe throw in one letter that they won’t use.

Children will see consonant clusters throughout their reading, and it is important for their reading skills that they know the sounds of each one. These fun spelling mats will get your little ones on there way to mastering them.
