A split digraph is when one sound splits the a, e, i, o, or u and the final e. For example, stage has a split digraph but not change.
The split digraphs are a_e (cake), e_e (these), i_e (ice), o_e (rose), and u_e (flute).
Teaching tip: Use the Segmenting Tool (available at Sound Waves Literacy Online) to model split digraphs for Focus and Extension Words. The projectable segmented answers also illustrate when a split digraph is present.
