Lesson 6

Consonant Blends with S (-sk-, sm-, sn-, sp-, -st-)

Generalization:

A blend is a spelling unit composed of two or three consonants that retain their identity

when pronounced. When the letter s is followed by the consonants k, m, n, p, or t, blend

the sounds for the letters –sk-, sm-, sn-, sp-, -st-. When the blend is said, the individual

sounds can still be heard. Because the letters are tightly bound, it is difficult to segment

them into individual phonemes.
