Consonant blends are groups of two or three consonants that are blended together when spoken. These blends create a single sound, and they can be found at the beginning, middle, or end of a word. For example, the word “slide” has two consonant blends: “sl” and “de”. Consonant blends help make words easier to say and help make them flow more naturally. They are a great way for young children to learn how to read and pronounce words correctly.
