So, the word tree has the blend of tr.<\/p>\n<p>You sound out T and R sounds in the word.<\/p>\n<h2>Christmas Blends Find &#038; Color Printable<\/h2>\n<p>These Christmas themed pages had 4 different blends: br, cr, pr and tr. It is fun to work on themed stuff every now and then. The printable has two parts the Christmas tree for coloring the ornament with the blend and a writing part.<\/p>\n<h2>Things to use with the Blends Coloring Page Printable<\/h2>\n<p><em>We have included links to some of the products and resources we have used with this activity.
