Most Wordle trouble with 5 letter words with C, E and H comes down to where the C and the H belong.
Those letters almost always stay together as CH, which begins CHEAP and CHECK or ends TEACH and REACH.
Locating the CH at the front or the back comes first, and TEACH tests the ending while CHECK tries the start.

CHECK. It is the most ordinary word here that the answer list carries, so it is the guess to make when you want to win the round rather than learn from it.

BELCH, CHAFE and CHIDE. All three are on the answer list, and none is a word you would reach for early, so they are worth remembering once the obvious guesses run out.
