Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given two columns:

Left column: choose between fr or fl
Right column: choose between gr or gl

We look at each picture and the word with a blank, then pick the correct consonant blend that makes a real word matching the picture.

---

Left Column (fr or fl)

1. Picture: Frog → word: _ _ og → “frog” starts with fr → ✔ frog
2. Picture: Flower → word: _ _ ower → “flower” starts with fl → ✔ flower
3. Picture: Frame → word: _ _ ame → “frame” starts with fr → ✔ frame
4. Picture: Fruits → word: _ _ uits → “fruits” starts with fr → ✔ fruits
5. Picture: Fly → word: _ _ y → “fly” starts with fl → ✔ fly
6. Picture: Flag → word: _ _ age → “flag” doesn’t fit… wait — “flag” is not ending in “age”. Let’s think again.
Actually, the word is likely “frage”? No, that’s not right. Wait — maybe it’s “flage”? Not a word.
Hmm — perhaps it’s “fridge”? But the picture is a flag.
Wait — let’s recheck: The word is “_ _ age”, and the picture is a red flag.
Could it be “flag”? But “flag” doesn’t end in “age”.
Oh! Maybe it’s “frontage”? Too long.
Let’s think of common words ending in “age” starting with fr/fl:
- friage? No.
- flage? Not standard.
Wait — perhaps it’s “freeze”? No.
Another idea: Maybe it’s “flare”? Doesn’t match “age”.
Hold on — perhaps the intended word is “frontage”? Still not matching the flag.
Let’s consider: Is there a word like “flag” + “e”? No.
Maybe it’s a trick — actually, looking back, perhaps the word is “fridge” but the picture is wrong?
Wait — no, let’s check online or common worksheets — ah! In many such worksheets, “flag” is paired with “flag”, but here the suffix is “age”.
Perhaps it’s “flamage”? Not a word.
I think there might be a mistake — but let’s assume the intended word is “frontage” for frame? No, frame was already used.
Wait — row 3 is frame → fr ame → correct.
Row 6: flag → _ _ age → perhaps it’s “flage” as in “collage”? No.
Another thought: Maybe it’s “freeze” — no.
Let’s skip and come back.

Actually — let’s look at the right column first, maybe we can cross-check.

Right Column (gr or gl)

1. Picture: Glue → word: _ _ ue → “glue” starts with gl → ✔ glue
2. Picture: Grapes → word: _ _ apes → “grapes” starts with gr → ✔ grapes
3. Picture: Glass of water → word: _ _ ass → “glass” starts with gl → ✔ glass
4. Picture: Grass → word: _ _ ass → “grass” starts with gr → ✔ grass
5. Picture: Globe → word: _ _ obe → “globe” starts with gl → ✔ globe
6. Picture: Green splat (maybe “green” or “goo”) → word: _ _ een → “green” starts with gr → ✔ green

Okay, right column is clear.

Now back to left column, row 6: flag → _ _ age

Wait — what if it’s “flage” as in “camouflage”? But that’s too advanced.
Perhaps it’s a typo and should be “_ _ ag” for “flag”? But it says “age”.

Another possibility: Maybe it’s “frontage” — but that doesn’t match the flag.

Wait — let’s think of words ending in “age” that start with fr/fl:

- freelage? No.
- florage? No.
- fruitage? No.
- flamage? Not standard.

Actually — I recall that in some phonics worksheets, they use “flag” but write it as “_ _ ag”, not “age”. Here it’s written as “_ _ age”.

Perhaps it’s “fridge” — but the picture is a flag.

Wait — maybe the picture is not a flag? Let me double-check the original image description.

In the user’s image description, row 6 left is: “a red flag” and word “_ _ age”

This is confusing.

But let’s consider: Is there a word “flage”? In French, yes, but not English.

Perhaps it’s “freeze” — no.

Another idea: Maybe it’s “flare” — but ends with “are”, not “age”.

I think there might be an error in the worksheet, but since all other answers are straightforward, and “flag” is clearly “fl”, perhaps the intended answer is fl, even if “flage” isn’t a word — or maybe it’s “flamage” as slang? Unlikely.

Wait — let’s search our memory: Common consonant blend words for “age”:

- grange? But that’s gr, and it’s right column.
- glade? Ends with “ade”.

Perhaps it’s “frontage” — but again, not matching flag.

Let’s look at the pattern: All other left column words are simple: frog, flower, frame, fruits, fly — all common words.

For “flag”, if we force it, “fl” is the only logical choice, even if “flage” isn’t standard. Or perhaps it’s a misprint and should be “_ _ ag” for “flag”.

Given that, and since “fl” is the blend for “flag”, I’ll go with fl for consistency.

So:

Row 6 left: flage — assuming it’s meant to be “flag” or accept “fl” as the blend.

Alternatively, maybe it’s “freeze” — but picture is flag.

I think we have to go with fl.

Final decision for left column:

1. fr og → frog
2. fl ower → flower
3. fr ame → frame
4. fr uits → fruits
5. fl y → fly
6. fl age → ? (but must be fl)

Actually — wait a minute! What if it’s “frontage” for the frame? But frame is already row 3.

No.

Another thought: Perhaps row 6 is “flag” and the “e” is a typo — should be “_ _ ag”. In that case, fl is correct.

I think for the purpose of this exercise, we’ll put fl.

So compiling all:

Left Column:
- frog → fr
- flower → fl
- frame → fr
- fruits → fr
- fly → fl
- flag → fl (assuming "flage" is a stand-in or typo)

Right Column:
- glue → gl
- grapes → gr
- glass → gl
- grass → gr
- globe → gl
- green → gr

Now, let’s write the answers in order.

Final Answer:

Left column (fr or fl):
1. fr
2. fl
3. fr
4. fr
5. fl
6. fl

Right column (gr or gl):
1. gl
2. gr
3. gl
4. gr
5. gl
6. gr

But to present it as per the worksheet format, we fill in the blanks.

So the completed words are:

Left:
- frog
- flower
- frame
- fruits
- fly
- flage? (but we'll say fl for the blend)

Since the task is to fill the blank with the blend, not the whole word, we just provide the blend letters.

So for each blank, we write the two letters.

Thus:

First row left: fr
Second row left: fl
Third row left: fr
Fourth row left: fr
Fifth row left: fl
Sixth row left: fl

First row right: gl
Second row right: gr
Third row right: gl
Fourth row right: gr
Fifth row right: gl
Sixth row right: gr

Yes.

Final Answer:
Left column blends: fr, fl, fr, fr, fl, fl
Right column blends: gl, gr, gl, gr, gl, gr
