Complete the Words worksheet for practicing consonant blends with fun illustrations.

Let me work through each word carefully by looking at the picture and the letters provided.

1. __hip - The picture shows a pirate ship. The word is "ship" → sh + hip = ship

2. __eese - The picture shows cheese with holes. The word is "cheese" → ch + eese = cheese

3. __alk - The picture shows chalk (a piece of chalk on a holder). The word is "chalk" → ch + alk = chalk

4. __air - The picture shows a chair. The word is "chair" → ch + air = chair

5. __ell - The picture shows a seashell. The word is "shell" → sh + ell = shell

6. __ark - The picture shows a shark. The word is "shark" → sh + ark = shark

7. __umb - The picture shows a thumb (with an arrow pointing to it). The word is "thumb" → th + umb = thumb

8. __orn - The picture shows a horn (with an arrow pointing to it). The word is "horn" → h + orn... wait, that's just "h". Let me reconsider. The options are sh, ch, th, or wh.

Hmm, "horn" starts with just "h", not a digraph. But the worksheet says to use sh, ch, th, or wh. Let me look again... The picture shows triangles that look like mountains or horns. Could it be "thorn"? That would be th + orn = thorn. Yes, that makes more sense! The picture likely shows a thorn (like on a rose stem) or it could be interpreted as thorn. Actually looking at the triangles with an arrow, it could represent a thorn. Let me go with thorn → th + orn = thorn.

Let me verify all answers:
1. ship - sh ✓
2. cheese - ch ✓
3. chalk - ch ✓
4. chair - ch ✓
5. shell - sh ✓
6. shark - sh ✓
7. thumb - th ✓
8. thorn - th ✓

All words use sh, ch, th, or wh as required. This looks correct!

Final Answer:
1. ship
2. cheese
3. chalk
4. chair
5. shell
6. shark
7. thumb
8. thorn
