Rule Breakers - these words break spelling rules These are rule breakers with a difference and you’re going to love them!

The answer is either! We usually keep the e but both versions are recognised in (most) dictionaries.

"Spellzone fits in beautifully with our Scope and Sequence of Phonological Awareness and Spelling. It also aligns perfectly with the four areas of spelling knowledge and uses the Brain, Ears, Eyes approach to learning spelling."
Thank you!
