What are Consonant blends and Digraphs?

What are Consonant Blends? A consonant blend is when two or more consonants are next to each other in a word, and you can hear the sound of each letter. For example, in the word “stop,” the letters s and t form a blend because you can hear both sounds: s and t.

What are Consonant Digraphs? A consonant digraph is when two consonants come together to make one new sound. For example, in the word “ship,” the letters s and h create a digraph because together they make a single sound: sh.
