Helping your child learn “thank”
Thank starts with the th digraph and ends with ank, as in bank and tank. Show your child that th is one sound. Then use it for real: whenever someone helps, write a thank you note together. Your child can trace or copy the word on the card.
Play Thank you cards
Make a stack of small cards. Each day, your child writes or traces “thank you” on one and gives it to someone who helped them. Count how many thank yous you make in a week.
Where to go next
After this one, move on to “think” and “them” (they also start with th).
