Listen carefully and spell each word correctly to score full marks.
The short /e/ sound can be spelled with the letters ea, as seen in the words ready and steady. Even though there are two letters, they combine to make one an e sound like in the word red. In this list, words like feather, weather, and measure follow this rule. Spotting this pattern will help you with both reading and spelling.
