Hands-On Learning With Free Digraph Word Ladder Printables

Word ladders are a great way to work on learning different types of words. They are a good hands-on way for kids to spell out their words.

We loved the Blends Word Ladders and I thought it was time for the digraph ones.

The Digraph Word Ladder Printable is a great addition to the digraph printables on the site.

What is a digraph?

A digraph is two letters together that make one sound. Digraphs can be made up of vowels or consonants.

Some examples of consonant digraphs would be ch-, -ch, -ck, gh, kn-, ph, qu-, sh-, -sh, th-, -th, wh-, and wr-.

Digraph Word Ladder Printable

The Digraph Word Ladders are a lot of fun for exploring different words. These printables match up with the Digraph Playdough Mats. They will let you make new words and explore which make words and which do not make a word.

Ways to Use the Digraph Word Ladders

I love setting up this activity with lacing letters. I give them several different tiles and one set of ladders and see what words they can create. They write on a separate piece of paper the words they make. We can go over the words and review them. Another fun way is to write a sentence with whatever word they create.
