Wisconsin FORT (Foundations of Reading) Practice Test

Question: 1 / 400

What is a consonant digraph?

Two letters representing different sounds

Two consonants creating a single sound not like either letter

A consonant digraph is formed when two consonants come together to create a single sound that is different from the sounds each letter would make individually. For example, in the word "shark," the letters "sh" come together to form the /sh/ sound. This is different from simply having two letters representing different sounds (Option A), having two vowels next to each other (Option C), or a tool for phonemic awareness (Option D). The key characteristic of a consonant digraph is that it involves two consonants that blend together to make a distinct sound.
