This challenging worksheet pushes first graders past tracing into decoding and word-level analysis across all four blends. Part A presents four multiple choice items asking which word starts with cl among bloom, cliff, fling, and grunt, which blend completes blaze, which word in flock, blank, jump, grind does not begin with a blend, and which blend is heard at the start of flutter.

Part B follows with five fill-in-the-blank sentences featuring a dog that begins to growl, a whistle that gets blew, a clock tower at noon, a flag in the breeze, and grass that was green and soft. It builds the auditory discrimination first graders need before moving on to ending blends and three-letter clusters.
