Tr- is one of the most frequently used two-letter blends in the English language. Common words hit upon this blend pattern include words like: trail, trouble, trip, truck, and try. You will also find a group of words, in this category, that is aimed at a higher level of vocabulary, in the words: tradition, tragedy, tremendous, and transmit. The best method to help students along is often repetition over a series of time. We would often come back to these words every few weeks. It will only take three or fours of these lesson episodes to lead to mastery of the basis concept and help your students heighten their reading and language skills.
