Unit 22 summary

Words with silent letters e.g. wrap, comb, sign, knight

In this unit, we discovered that silent letters in words are not just there to make spelling difficult. They can actually reveal interesting things about the word itself:

Think back - help with spelling rules
  • That its pronunciation has changed over time
  • Where it comes from.

Or are there to do a job:

  • Make the preceding vowel say its name
  • Keep a vowel sound short
  • Change a hard to a soft sound.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
