Wh Digraph Adventure

Introduction

Welcome, little explorers! Today, we are going on an exciting adventure to discover the magical world of the wh digraph! Are you ready to find out where the wh sound can be found and what fun words start with it?

The Whispering Woods

Setting the Scene

Imagine we are stepping into a mystical place called the Whispering Woods. Here, the trees can talk, and they often begin their sentences with the wh sound. As we walk along the path, listen closely, because everything we hear will be filled with words starting with our special digraph!

Story Time

Let’s gather around for a short story!


The Story of Whimsical Willow

Once upon a time, in the Whispering Woods, lived a friendly little tree named Willow. Willow loved to whisper to the animals and play games with them. One day, Willow said, “Who wants to come and play?”

A little rabbit named Whiskers hopped over. “I do!” said Whiskers. “Let’s go find the white flowers that bloom in the sunny spot!”

But wait! Suddenly, a whale appeared in the crystal-clear lake! That’s right, a whale in the woods! “Hello, my friends! I’m here to help you find your whimsical adventure!” the whale called.


Questions to Spark Imagination

  1. What other animals do you think live in the Whispering Woods?
  2. What would you do if you saw a whale?
  3. Can you think of other words that start with “wh”?

Activity Time!

Wh Digraph Craft

Now that we've enjoyed our adventure, let’s create our own Wh(dictation activity)rap! Gather some materials like paper, markers, or crayons.

  1. Draw your favorite animal from the story!
  2. Write a word that starts with wh next to your drawing. It could be whale, whiskers, or even whisper!
  3. Share your masterpiece with the class!

Conclusion

Fantastic job today, explorers! You’ve learned about the wh digraph and had fun in the Whispering Woods. Remember, every time you hear the wh sound, it’s like a little adventure waiting to happen. Keep your ears open for more magical words!
