Understanding 'sh' Sound and Digraphs

The video tutorial introduces the 'sh' sound, a diagraph made by combining the letters S and H. The teacher uses a magic box to find objects like sheep, shell, and fish, demonstrating the 'sh' sound at the beginning or end of words. Students are guided through writing the 'sh' sound using 'magic fingers' and practice reading words such as shop, fish, and ship. The lesson concludes with encouragement for students to think of their own 'sh' words.
