This animated phonics song helps children learn the sound of the trigraph SQU in English. A trigraph is a combination of three letters representing one sound. Colorful characters teach kids two words at a time with the SQU sound. Kids will love singing along and watching the action after each group of two words. As they do, they’ll practice making the SQU sound. Developed with speech therapists to form each letter sound correctly. Extra practice reading words with the letter combination SQU follows the song.
