The ow spelling is used to represent the sound /ou/ in longer words, especially before the endings el and er. It also appears at the end of words or syllables. Examples include:
- cower – I cower in fear.
- flower – The gardener picked a beautiful flower.
To reinforce this pattern, try a spelling activity or game with these words and see how many you can spell correctly!

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
