Then, engage students in sorting activities where they group words by their vowel sounds. Use games like 'Digraph Bingo' or 'Matching Pairs' to reinforce learning. Incorporate daily reading and dictation exercises focusing on digraphs to enhance recognition and application in context.

How to test a Grade 2 student’s Word differentiation skills?

To test a Grade 2 student's word differentiation skills, use a mix of written and oral methods. Present pairs of similar-sounding words (e.g., "night/knight") or words with different meanings (e.g., "bat" as an animal or a sports equipment) in various contexts. Ask the student to identify, explain the differences, or use them in sentences to assess understanding and differentiation capability.
