What Consonants Say

This topic comprises four separate lessons about consonants.

The first is an in-depth, powerful analysis of word-initial and word-final consonant clusters (blends), organised in a way that helps learners make their own observations about spelling and blending. This tool is then available throughout all subsequent lessons.

The three remaining lessons set rules about the letters ‘q’, ‘c’ and ‘g’ and the environments in which they operate.
