Sound Cards
Quick Drill
Welded Sounds
•Welded sounds are green sound cards.
•The three letters have individual sounds,
but they are welded together and difficult
to separate
•To tap this out, use three fingers tapping
together at the same time.

digraphs
Consonants ‘stick together’ to form one
sound, even though there are two letters.
That is why they are on one card. They
are not separated.
qu
Q is the chicken letter- it refuses to go anywhere without its
friend, u. It is never in a word alone. The u in this situation
has no vowel sound. Qu is a digraph as well.

Blends VS Digraphs
ship
s ipl
•Ship gets 3 taps
•Slip gets four sounds because s and l
have their own sound. That is why s and l
have their own cards.
•These sounds can be pulled apart but the
consonants blend together nicely.
