Once our students have learned to decode and encode simple Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC) and Consonant-Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CCVC) words composed of letters in the basic code – but before we step up to working on polysyllabic words, we recommend that students practice decoding short sentences containing similar words that contrast CVC and CCVC word pairs, e.g. <tick> v <stick>.
In this early reading support resource we feature 32 decodable CVC/CCVC minimal pairs and near minimal pairs contrasted in short sentences.

Split digraphs – sometimes called the ‘bossy e’ or ‘magic e’ or ‘first use of the silent e’ – are tricky for many kids (and adults) who are learning to read! Even though many reading teachers are taught to focus on the so-called ‘silent e’, we would all do better by learners to focus on the different vowel speech sounds – the true difference between the words in each pair.
In this sentence resource, we extend the contrast approach to help us to teach the split digraph in sentences. Each sentence contains both members of a word pair (or, in some cases, near word pair). For example: Can the man pat the lion’s mane or will the lion snap at him?
To improve reading accuracy and speed, repetition is key. For this reason, this pack contains 60 sentences featuring word pairs, including <a_e>.
