'a_e' split digraph

Oliver's dad came in to help in 1EG yesterday.  He worked with groups to print  a_e split digraph words in paint.  

"The magic 'e' is a bit like the 'k' at the beginning of 'knife' isn't it?  You cant hear it....it is silent!"  Kyla 

Can you spot the magic 'e' in these words?

Remember the magic 'e' makes the vowel before it say its name!

Watch this 'Alphablocks' video about split digraphs.  It has really helped us learn all about them!
