Three-Letter Consonant Blends

A consonant blend has two or more consonants together. In a blend, you can hear each consonant sound. Read the short story, then solve the word clues. Look for three-letter blends such as str, spl, spr, scr, and thr.

The Garden Trail

Carlos followed a narrow street to the community garden. A spring shower had left a puddle beside the path. She heard a splash as a frog jumped in. Near the strawberry patch, Carlos spotted a screw on the ground. She picked it up and used it to help fix a loose birdhouse. Then she heard a thrush singing in a tree. “What a splendid morning!” she said.
