The "H Brothers"

You may have observed your child reading along and then they get to a tricky word with th in it. The kids naturally want to sound it out as.... "t" and "h". Learning to blend these digraphs together often takes time, especially since they aren't always at the beginning of the words. They pop up everywhere. We use lots of fun videos and "tricks" in first grade to help children read these digraphs. Here's a fun video that demonstrates this skill.
