CH vs TCH Spelling Rule - Ending After a Short Vowel This interactive phonics deck helps students practice choosing the correct digraph ending CH or TCH to complete words. Students focus specifically on the spelling rule for word endings: 1. TCH is used after a short vowel 2. CH is used in all other ending cases (after long vowels, vowel teams, or consonants) Beginning digraph CH words are intentionally excluded so every card requires students to apply the rule. What students will do: 1. Drag ch or tch to complete each word 2. Practice identifying short vowels before the /ch/ sound 3. Apply the spelling rule consistently across multiple examples Skills covered: 1. CH vs TCH spelling 2. Short vowel recognition 3. Phonics spelling rules 4. Ending digraph patterns 5. Orthographic mapping
