Phonics breakdown

ea

Phonics Rule: EA Vowel Team (Long E)

When E and A are together, they usually say long E, like in 'teach' and 'beach'.

The vowel team 'ea' most commonly makes the long E sound /iː/. However, it can also say short E (like 'bread') or long A (like 'great'). The long E pronunciation is by far the most common.

Tip

When two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking.

Examples

ch

Phonics Rule: CH Digraph

C and H together make a new sound: /tʃ/, like in 'chop' and 'much'.

When C and H are together, they don't say /k/ + /h/. They make a completely new sound: /tʃ/. This is called a digraph — two letters making one sound.

Tip

CH — choo choo goes the train!
