SONG ABOUT DIGRAPHS (Sung to the traditional melody of SHORTNIN' BREAD!)

You take two consonants,
Throw them in the pot,
Cook them up together,
And what have you got?
You've got a new sound
Called a digraph,
When we spell them and we sound them,
It makes us laugh!

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

Sh says sh,
Ch says ch,
Now it's your (my) turn to sing a digraph or two.

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

Th says th,
Ck says ck,
Now it's your (my) turn to sing a digraph or two.

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

Wh says wh,
Gh says gh.
Now it's your (my) turn to sing a digraph or two.

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

Gn says gn,
Kn says kn,
Now it's your (my) turn to sing a digraph or two.

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

You place the letter t
In front of ch,
You get tch,
And it's a digraph too!

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!

Ph says fuh,
It has the sound of an f,
You're cooking up sounds
Like a digraph chef!

Everybody loves to sound
Digraphs, digraphs,
Everybody loves to sound digraphs "Wow"!
Consonants together make a brand new sound "Hey"!
Everybody loves to spell digraphs now!
